man was hiding a yellow sweater inside his coat. I thought he had stolen it, so

I caught him. We found later that his wife gave him the sweater for his

he didn’t want his wife to see him! We soon let him go.

wrote on the back of an envelope, “Give me the money! Or I’ll kill you.” and

gave it to the bank clerk. She gave him $100,000 and the man ran away. Then

we received a phone call from the bank clerk. She told us to go to the man’s

house in Candy Town and get him. We caught him as soon as he got out of
