Texas—A police officer directing traffic outside of a concert in suburban Dallas noticed a familiar-looking truck driving by -- his own. The startling sight led to the arrest of James Matthew Herring, 22, who is charged with theft and evading arrest, police said.

Perfect! I love to read this kind of news! Good to see you again John!
SOmething kind similar happed to a friend of ours....he is a Highway patrol officer in NC. He had taken his family fishing at the NC coast. He put his fishing poles/gear by the door of their rented condo..someone took them. Later that day he saw a truck pass them and he saw his fishing poles in the back of the truck. Of course the truck went by to fast for him to do anything...but the truck turned around for some reason...ha! My friend walked up to the truck and asked the driver where he got the poles (this was some very expensive fishing poles and not common). The guy siad he'd bought them for a person on the beach. My friend whipped out his badge and told the guy he was not going to "buy" them back and he wanted them NOW!! He was given his poles back right then and there with no questions! Pretty funny! Dumb theives!!
