Was perusing the local paper when it got delivered to the library and there was a story about a guy who robbed a local doughnut shop in the wee hours of Thurdays morning.
He walked into the shop about 3 am, placed an order for doughnuts and paid with a credit card. While the clerk was filling the order, he reached over, opened the till, grabbed the cash and then hightailed it out of there.
Never mind the surveillance cameras, the police station across the street, several witnesses and the fact the owner tends to mark the bills just in case (we have the occasional robbery at the gas stations at either end of town). I should also mention, his credit card reciept.
Cops got his address from the credit card info and tracked him down. When they arrived, he was waiting for them outside.
They arrested him for petit theft and booked him into county jail.
All for less the $200.
