If one were to steal from a local store, you wouldn't think the same suspect would attempt to steal again from the very same business? After all, wouldn't store employees easily be able to identify the suspect? Also, there are security and surveillance cameras everywhere.

However, this what offcials say happened when a 37-year-old man went to back to the same store he had stolen from before to steal yet again. Guess this guy never learns?

The part that really stands out about the story is that police say the suspect has stolen from the same business a dozen times going back to September.
