"Were guarding the Swedish fish. Hurry."
A 19-year-old Green Township mother is in the Hamilton County jail after Cincinnati police charged her with taking her newborn child along while she broke into a candy store.There's a mugshot at the link. She's . . . kinda chunky. Christine Ruther and three others are accused of breaking into Peter Minges & Son candy store, 138 W. Court St., downtown, shortly before 1 a.m. and swiping about $500 in candy, police said. The group was arrested a few blocks away at Fourth and Race streets when police caught up with them by following a trail of candy and candy wrappers. Leslie Betts, manager of the 103-year-old family candy distributing business, said the quartet stole every kind of candy imaginable: Reece cups, Skittles, Twizzlers, you name it. She said she learned of the break-in when Cincinnati police called her at home about 1:30 a.m. Youve been broken into, she said they told her. Were guarding the Swedish fish. Hurry. Come down. We cant leave the store. Its wide open. . . . Posted by: Mike 2008-04-11 |
