Michigan piggy-bank robber is sent to jail for 4 months

ITHACA, Mich.

A central Michigan man who couldn’t keep his hands off a piggy bank has been sentenced to four months in jail.

Adam Spence of Ithaca was sentenced Monday in Gratiot County court.

The Morning Sun says he was accused of stealing about $450 while visiting a baby sitter.

The bank has a label that says, “My very first piggy bank.”

Gratiot County Prosecutor Keith Kushion says the 26-year-old Spence also must write a letter of apology.

Kentucky man is charged with stealing book on ethics

LOUISVILLE, Ky.

University of Louisville police say a Prospect, Ky., man is getting a tough lesson on ethics that probably can’t be found in a book.

The Courier-Journal reported that campus police arrested Terry J. Davis last Wednesday and charged him with stealing a textbook called “Resolving Ethical Issues” from the University of Louisville’s Health Sciences Center.

Police say Davis later tried to sell the book to Gray’s College Bookstore in Louisville.

The arrest report said surveillance video cameras captured the theft and attempt to sell the book.
