Police Find Buried Treasure Near Los Angeles Freeway
February 27, 2008 11:09 p.m. EST

Los Angeles, CA (AHN) - A map obtained by police from a convicted burglar led to the discovery of buried treasure near the Ronald Reagan Freeway in Los Angeles. The unearthed treasure was a collection of antique watches, necklaces, and diamond rings, including a canary diamond ring suspected to be worth $400,000.

Authorities Tuesday followed the directions on a map taken from Robert Caveda, who was imprisoned on December 18 for several charges including residential burglary. The map, police said, was hand-sketched, and had an "X" marking the area where the treasure was buried.

The loot was located in a plastic pipe underneath the 118 Freeway near White Oak Avenue, authorities said.

"My heart jumped out of my throat," said Detective Bill Longacre, according to Mercury News.

"Why did he give it up? Why did he keep this stuff?" he said. "For him, it was the thrill of the hunt. It was a lifestyle he chose to excite himself."

The map, according to authorities, was drawn by Caveda while sitting in his cell.

"I was shocked," said attorney Mark Bledstein, upon sending a copy of the map to the police via fax. "I mean, to have a map like that, and it's right there where the guy says it is?"

Police are planning to do an inventory of the unearthed valuables, and afterwards notify people who reported of burglaries during Caveda's robbery stint, reported the Los Angeles News.

Previous discoveries of Caveda's other stolen items were made at a North Hollywood storage facility, where police uncovered $2 million worth of stolen jewelry and art pieces. Police also found a particular fine art piece that was priced at about $10 million.

Big numbers there ....
