    Suspect Leaves Names at Crime Scenes

    Wed Oct 27,11:00 AM ET U.S. National - AP

    LATROBE, Pa. - Police said they had two substantial clues in two theft cases — a suspect's name and telephone number.

    Bradley J. Hightower, 23, of Latrobe, gave his first name and telephone number when he applied for a job Oct. 12 at Rolling Hills Industry, Latrobe police said. While he was finishing the job application at the janitorial company, Hightower allegedly took a cash box and $26 inside, police said.

    "We called him the same day, (with) the phone number he'd written on his job application. He confessed," said Latrobe Police officer John Sleasman.

    A week later, Hightower left his name and telephone number at Latrobe Area Hospital when he applied to be a volunteer there, police said. Later that day, hospital employees noticed their wallets were missing, police said.

    Once again, police called Hightower, who confessed to taking the wallets and returned the money, Sleasman said.

    Hightower was charged with theft and receiving stolen property. He will be arraigned Nov. 24.


    A telephone number for Hightower could not be located and he could not be immediately reached for comment by The Associated Press.

    See, that's why you just deny everything. On the hospital incident, they didn't have much on him. The guy is obviously just a klepto.
