Thief Steals Credit Card, Goes Grocery Shopping In Fairfax

FAIRFAX, VA — Ah, the holiday spirit. Good deeds abound. Or not. Just take this example from Monday's Fairfax Police crime report. Early Sunday afternoon, the victim told police she inadvertently left her credit card at store beside the Shoppers Food Warehouse at 9622 Main Street.

Someone found it. So of course it immediately was turned in to a store employee, right? Nope. Someone did, in fact, find it. But instead of returning it, that someone walked next door to Shoppers and went grocery shopping with it. Ah, the holiday spirit. Also in Monday's crime report:
