Rehoboth Beach purse theft suspect charged
Police say they have made an arrest, in connection to the theft of a purse from a local eatery.
Rehoboth Beach Police say back on April 11, a woman reported that her purse had been stolen from the Purple Parrot Restaurant the night before, around 11:30 PM. Police say they were able to look back at surveillance footage for the incident, and watched the suspect take the purse.
The suspect was apparently quickly identified as 54-year-old James Weber, of Rehoboth Beach. Weber was later arrested on April 16, and charged with one count of theft under $1,500.
He was later released on $1,000 bond, pending a future hearing in the Court of Common Pleas. Anyone with additional information about the incident is asked to contact Ptlm. Josh Kosiorowski at 302-227-2577.
