Canceled transactions result in arrest

A 21-year-old Home Depot cashier has been arrested in Boulder, Colo., on suspicion of theft after security personnel noticed he was canceling transactions and pocketing the cash, according to an article in the Daily Camera.

Christopher Reading, who was arrested on Feb. 7, allegedly handed customers “suspended transaction” receipts so that they didn’t realize the fraud, according to a police spokesperson. The items were worth $690, the newspaper reported.
