Lingerie Pilferer Apprehended
“For more than four months, a man has been stealing underwear from the homes of Ole Miss’ female students, creeping out the entire town with his antics,” reports the Memphis Commercial Appeal. But now, notes WREG’s Natasha Chen, “the man known as ‘the panty thief,’” has been captured. While the story does indeed have some fairly creepy elements to it, it has certainly resulted in some classic local news reportage. I suppose it’s one of those “laugh to keep from crying” type deals.
