Grants Pass Police arrested a gas station attendant for stealing the wallet of a customer last weekend.

Surveillance video showed an employee take the wallet and conceal it in his work vest. The worker never reported the found wallet to his manager prior to leaving for the day.
Officers contacted the man at his residence and he was found to be in possession of the wallet. He denied stealing the wallet and claimed that he forgot he had it. The wallet was seized and the suspect was cited to appear in court for 2nd-Degree Theft. The victim picked up her wallet at the police station later that evening.
