VINELAND – Police are investigating the theft of a computer, according to reports, that took place from the radiology department in the regional medical center.

The computer may have contained personal records and information, police said, which are password protected.

The theft occurred at Inspira Medical Center Vineland sometime on Monday, reports indicated, when it was taken from an unsecured filing room in the radiology department.

Police value the computer at $2,800.

According to Greg Potter, spokesman for Inspira, the health network is aware of the theft and are evaluating whether the computer did contain any patient information — promising to take proper measures if that is the case.

The incident is still under investigation.
