Post Falls PD: His pants didn’t catch fire

From Post Falls PD Facebook page:

"Trespassing – An intoxicated male thought he could pull a fast one on the vigilant employees at Walmart. He plucked beer from the display case and attempted to casually stroll through the self check out without paying for his loot. The store staff surround the male who became belligerent in an attempt to convince them that he paid for the beer. Officers arrived on scene and pointed out that the male did not have a receipt. Then they pointed out that he did not have a wallet. When he tried to convince the officers that he paid with cash they asked where his change was. Faced with the fact he would have to convince them that he paid with the exact cash amount he hung his head in shame and admitted that he did not pay for the beer. He was trespassed from the store and left angrily. Somehow his pants did not catch on fire."
