Bad first date: Woman takes Oregon man’s wallet

WILSONVILLE, Ore. (AP) — Oregon police agree it was a bad first date.

They say a 23-year-old man met a woman for the first time in person Monday night after they talked online. She hopped into his vehicle at a drive-through restaurant in Wilsonville, south of Portland, and suggested he buy her a milkshake.

Sgt. Dan Kraus says the man got two $1 bills in change and put them into his wallet, which he left on the center console. Kraus says the woman grabbed the wallet, got out of the car and ran off.

The Oregonian reports the man called 911 and provided the woman’s cellphone number. Officers called her to arrange a meeting at the same restaurant.

They arrested her early Tuesday and recovered the wallet — with the two $1 bills still inside.
