2 Thefts; That's No Way to Buy Beer: Police Blotter
The following information was provided by the Bath Township Police Department
A man trying to buy beer at Acme didn't take no for an answer Aug. 14.
A report said that when the clerk refused to sell it because he had no identification, the man threw $3 on the floor and left with the beer anyway.
An employee tried to stop him, but he kept walking.
He did stop for a police officer, though. He was charged with theft.
Theft from Vehicle
A woman who left her designer purse in the car learned a lesson the hard way.
A report said someone broke the passenger side window between 4:20 and 4:35 p.m. Aug. 12 while the car was parked outside Friendly's.
Taken was a Michael Kors purse, which contained credit cards and $150 in cash.
Theft from Door
