Toilet Thief On Loose In Lake City

Seems a toilet thief is loose in Coeur d'Alene. Last week, Ryan Black was in the process of renting a house at 1215 Government Way when his girlfriend discovered the toilet was missing. Black's girlfriend discovered the missing john while showing her father the house early Saturday evening. Black had put a $500 deposit down on the rental with Investment Property Management and was finishing the rental paperwork. He hadn't moved into the house yet. The toilet burglar gained entrance by kicking in the back door. Kevin Bacon of Investment Property Management said the toilet was in place when he dropped by the property earlier in the week. Bacon estimated the value of the toilet and two missing towel racks to be a combined $174.
