in old pants

GALLATIN, Tenn. (AP) ? Police in Gallatin say the evidence that led them to a theft suspect was right behind him.

Officers say 20-year-old Dustin Matthew Marshall tried on a new pair of jeans at a Walmart and left without paying for them. WTVF-TV reported employees found Marshall's old jeans in a dressing room ? his wallet still in them.

Police caught up with Marshall and 19-year-old Lindsey Samantha Scholl on Saturday night after a couple fled a Longhorn Steakhouse without paying their bill.

A search of their home turned up evidence of auto burglaries and an apartment break-in.

Marshall and Scholl were booked into the Sumner County Jail on burglary, three counts of theft from a motor vehicle, two counts of theft under $500 and possession of drug paraphernalia.
