The following is supposedly a true story. To be included, besides
being true, the story is most likely strange, weird, surprising, or
funny.
Des Moines, Iowa:
A repentant burglar returned his loot to its owners, along with a
note explaining why: "My priest said I done a wrong."
More than $200, a pair of sunglasses and some golf balls were found
Monday morning on the steps of Potthoff Foods Incorporated, a meat
wholesaler.
"He took my sunglasses, but I didn't know he took them until I got
them back this morning," sales representative Phil Barber said. "You
know, I don't think something like this happens that often. It's sort
of neat. The guy did wrong, but he tried to make it right."
The break-in at Potthoff's happened late Friday or early Saturday.
The thief pried open a door and rummaged through some desks.
Potthoff officials said they're not going to depend on the honesty of
thieves' nature in the future.
"We are adding an extra security system today," Barber said.
