30 years later, burglar repays money - with interest
A person who claims to have stolen $800 from a Barry County store about 30 years ago has repaid the money in cash -- with interest.
For 24 Hour News 8, the story began with a hard copy letter that arrived in the newsroom Monday morning.
"I'm asking for help in locating a man that I owe the money," an anonymous person wrote in the letter. "Anyways, I did a very bad thing that I am shamed of [sic] and have lived with this guilt."
The writer admitted to breaking into what was then the Middle Mart on M-37 just north of Middleville about 30 years ago. The self-proclaimed burglar didn't specify motive, only admitting to stealing cash from the store.
