Police say the officer noticed that John White matched the description a store clerk gave of the thief, and the address White wanted turned out to be the same one the officer was checking. The address had been left on a slip of paper the thief left at a gas station. White was arrested Tuesday after the officer found he had both phones, along with a small amount of marijuana. Police say charges are pending. --- Information from: KUTV-TV, http://kutv.com
