Police: Man Arrested Twice For Stealing Beer
Man Found Waiting At Bus Stop After Each Robbery
DENVER -- A 26-year-old Basalt man was arrested twice this week for allegedly stealing cases of Miller Lite from a 7-Eleven.
The Aspen Daily News reported a store clerk said he saw the man load a case of beer into his backpack and walk out of the store Wednesday night.
Police found a man matching the clerk's description at a nearby bus stop and found the backpack stuffed into a newspaper box.
The man was arrested for petty theft and released, police said.
The next night, a different 7-Eleven clerk called police reporting that a man had just walked out of the store with two 12-packs.
A Pitkin County sheriff's deputy found the same alleged beer thief waiting at a bus stop.
He arrested the man for theft, the newspaper reported, and released him again.
"We don't know if he just started doing it or if he just started getting caught," said Basalt Police Sgt. Stu Curry. "But that's one of the dumbest crimes I’ve seen."
