WiFi can use 2.4GHz or 5GHz. However, Bluetooth can only use the 2.4GHz band. If you need working Bluetooth you need to make sure you don't mess too much with the 2.4GHz band. In practice Bluetooth can usually work with two-thirds of the band blocked by interference, but not more than that.

This is an old problem. USB is bad for interference with 2.4GHz systems. It's one of the reasons you see shielding inside laptops.
It's also one reason that many laptops have less WiFi and bluetooth range when closed than they do when the screen is opened.

The Land Registry property alerts service. See this.

They do this in the UK too. He should have subscribed.
That said, it seems to me that despite what the Police say, a crime definitely was committed here.
