A laptop containing 6,000 names, birth dates, addresses and Social Security numbers was stolen from a Baltimore County health clinic, officials said.

The computer was stolen along with syringes and medication from the county’s Woodlawn clinic April 13, said Monique Lyle, a spokeswoman for the county’s health department.

Lyle said the laptop was “pretty” secure, equipped with a separate security system for the internal information database. To date, she said the county has not had any related reports of identify thefts.

The county mailed affected residents letters reminding them of free credit checks available, by law, from three reporting agencies.
