If you report the iPhone stolen to local authorities, they may need the serial number.

Jul 2, 2015 2:34 PMby X2NYT,Thanks for that, but unfortunately EVERYTHING of mine was stolen yesterday from my home,
including my two wo macbook pros (2010 & early 2015 models) to which my phone is synced, along with my iPod and my iPhone 5C, among other things. the authorities say they cannot do anything unless they have the serial and IMEI of the phone. I have managed to get the serial of the new MacBook pro as I still have the packaging for it, but for the old MacBook and iphone I have nothing, except for their registration on my iCloud.
appreciate any help and advice anyone can offer as it is my life's work in those machines, as well as the hard drives that were taken with them
