Central/South Florida

Officers receive a call regarding a suspicious subject moving through the Wal-Mart parking lot trying car doors. Officers arrive and locate the subject. He provides various accounts of his activity and various reasons why he is in the parking lot. Officers test these claims and find all to be false.
The subject is taken into custody for auto burglary - of the Wal-Mart manager's vehicle.
The manager then recognizes the subject as the same person who had just been inside the store at the return desk. Further investigation determines that the subject had just returned a set of jumper cables and received the money from the store.
Where did he get the jumper cables?
The store manager's car.


Pinellas County FLA.

It seems our criminal mastermind has just been released from prison, where he served four years for armed home invasion. He also happens to be on federal probation for bank robbery.
It's been a few days, though, and it's just too hard to stay on the straight and narrow. It's lunch time, so he goes to Publix. He shoves a pound of Boar's Head smoked chicken and a half-pound of Boar's Head cheese down his pants.
Cleverly, though, he buys a half-gallon of milk and bread.
Unfortunately, a loss prevention employee sees him and he and a manager confront the gentleman out in the parking lot. Obviously at the top of his game, he shoves the loss prevention guy (now making the misdemeanor retail theft a felony) and the fight is on.
During the escape, the bad guy ditches the meat and cheese, his shirt gets ripped off his back, but he has made good his bid for freedom.
The bad news is that he was wearing a shirt with his company logo on it and escaped in a company vehicle. In the pocket of his company shirt is the card of his federal probation officer and a receipt for the urinalysis he had to get, with his name, date of birth and signature on it. (You can't make this stuff up.)
