Man Allegedly Applies For Job, Then Steals From Cash Register [VIDEO]

Updated

There are probably smarter ways to get a job. On Tuesday morning Anthony Thomas filled out a job application at a Citgo gas station in Ocala, Florida. Then, when no one was looking, the 33-year-old allegedly reached into the station's cash register and stole $130 -- and walked out. But the theft reportedly was captured on the station's surveillance camera, and Thomas had filled out his real name on the application and was a regular customer, so police tracked the suspect down pretty quickly, according to the Ocala Star Banner, a Florida newspaper.

Thomas was charged with burglary, petty theft and resisting arrest with violence after he tried to flee the scene, the Ocala Star Banner reported.
