Suspect(s): Andre Morris, 35, of Harrison Street arrested on charges of theft by unlawful taking (contents from vehicle), receiving stolen property and criminal littering
Police were called Monday by a woman who said a man had stolen her purse and other items from her car while it was parked in the 1200 block of Broadway. The woman said her sister’s cellular phone was in her purse, and she located the man by using a location app on her sister’s phone.
The woman said she found the man – identified as Andre Morris – at a fast food restaurant on Broadway and confronted him, and he fled on foot, throwing various items as he ran. The woman’s purse and wallet were found, and when he was arrested, Morris had in his possession an iPod that he could not identify.
Morris was arrested on the above-listed charges and booked into McCracken County Regional Jail.
Morris was arrested on similar charges last Tuesday after he entered several cars at businesses in the 900 and 1000 blocks of Monroe Street and the 800 block of Broadway.
Anyone who is missing an iPod from their vehicle, or whose vehicle was entered in the area roughly bounded by Broadway and Monroe Street, 8th Street and 13th Street, is urged to call Paducah police at 270/444-8550.
