Theft charges against Elliott Giles, 41, league director of the Youngstown Youth Flag Football Association, have been dismissed by a Mahoning County judge at the request of the prosecutor.

Giles, arrested in December, was accused of stealing an electronic device at Panera Bread. According to 21 WFMJ-TV, The Vindicator’s broadcast partner, Giles told police it was a misunderstanding. He said he saw the device on the floor and took it home to try and contact the owner and return it.
