Dumpster diving thieves may have their hands on your private information. Personal documents, with visible bank account information, were found in an overflowing dumpster behind a strip mall near 91st and Yale on Sunday. Some of the documents, which were not shredded, had fallen onto the ground and were blowing around in the wind, police said.

Tulsa Police contacted some of those identified on the documents; their reaction was not a pleasant one.

"People are not happy about this and want to get to the bottom of why their information is literally blowing in the wind across 91st Street and Yale," said Officer Gina Scuderi Cook.

Officer Cook told us they may know the person responsible for dumping the information, but police are still investigating.
