So samuel rolled the dice. Ha Ha Ha Ha 7/11 (where’s Howe when you need him)
He was arrested and charged with robbery and theft by unauthorized taking. Does it have to state “unauthorized taking”? Isn’t that what theft means?
Perhaps Mr. Hurt is used to throwing his weight around and decided he could “help himself”.
He’s a good boy, a very good boy.
