LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- A Louisville man is facing a felony charge after police say a victim used GPS to track down his stolen Blackberry.

According to an arrest report, the victim stopped 21-year-old Isaiah C. Washington somewhere on Baxter Avenue in the Highlands area Tuesday afternoon. Police say Washington had the man's stolen Blackberry in his possession -- and the victim was able to track him all the way to that location.

The man called police, and when they arrived, they allegedly found the Blackberry, a Rolex watch and a men's gold wedding ring in Washington's backpack.

These items had allegedly been stolen from a home on Silverton Lane, near Ballardsville Road.

Washington has been charged with receipt of stolen property.
