Police: Man with $600 arrested for stealing pencil
BELLINGHAM, Wash. (AP) - Police have arrested a man after he allegedly stole a pencil from a Bellingham store even though he was carrying $600 in cash.
Gregory B. Torrey, 44, was booked into the Whatcom County Jail after police learned he had an outstanding warrant from Everett.
Officers questioned Torrey about why he stole the mechanical pencil, worth $5.99, when he had enough money to pay for it. Police say Torres just responded: "I don't know, being stupid I guess."
