Man with $600 on him arrested for allegedly stealing pencil

THE BELLINGHAM HERALD

A man was arrested Friday, Nov. 13, on suspicion of shoplifting a mechanical pencil from the downtown Bellingham Rite Aid - even though he had $600 cash in his possession.

Gregory B. Torrey, 44, was cited and booked into the Whatcom County Jail after Bellingham police officers learned he had an outstanding warrant from Everett, according to the police.

Officers questioned Torrey about why he stole the pencil, worth $5.99, when he had enough money to pay for it, and he said, "I don't know, being stupid I guess," police said
