Police report of the week
This comes from Arcadia, where officers are hoping they can bargain their way to higher pay and more cops on the beat.
NOVEMBER 24,
A victim came to the station around 2:23 p.m. to file a theft report. She advised that for the past year she has been involved in an on-line relationship with the 21-year-old male Hispanic suspect. They finally decided to meet on November 11 and he asked if she would like to help him save money for their wedding. She agreed to help and gave him her bank debit card with the stipulation that he limit his withdrawals to $200. A few days later the victim discovered that he withdrew $1,000.
No word on whether they've caught this guy. Perhaps he'll claim he used the money to buy an engagement ring.
