Date:8/18 Type of media/location if applicable: Locke City TV News, radio, newspaper, and one or two internet articles. All presumably not seen as big a deal as SUPERHEROICS AND ALIENS. But still weird.
"It appears two familiar thieves have acted once again. Last month, these two figures were seen stealing the door from the Hugh P. Thadson Gallery of Fine Art. Now, they've found a new target: the Candy Emporium.
Dressed as horror characters Freddy Krueger from the Nightmare on Elm St. and Jason Voorhees from Friday the 13th, they stole hundreds of dollars worth of candy. The cashier on duty explained that he was so startled by the costumed thieves, he didn't check to see if they paid the correct amount for their "purchases". They had handed the man a $20 with an extra zero written in marker. They also drew a smiley face on Andrew Jackson. The cashier was fired from his position not long after.
Oddly enough, the couple appeared again not three hours later at Marshal's Home for Orphaned Children. The facility staff reported that they believed the couple were donating the candy in preparation for their Halloween charity drive. It wasn't until they heard the news that they realized the truth. The Candy Emporium and Marshal's Home are in talks in returning the stolen goods. With Marshal's policy for not returning donations, this could be problematic.
