Oklahoma DT DeMarcus Granger was sent home from the Fiesta Bowl on Sunday after his arrest in Tempe, AZ.
Granger, 21, was arrested Saturday in Tempe after he tried to steal a jacket from the Burlington Coat Factory inside Arizona Mills Mall, Tempe police reported.
"Mr. Granger removed an anti-theft device from a jacket and then concealed the jacket in a bag. He exited the store walking past the cash registers without paying for the jacket," Mike Horn, a spokesman for the Tempe Police Department, said in a statement.
I know when I decide to shoplift a jacket, I don't go for Burberry, Prada, etc. That's too obvious. The more strategic choice is Burlington Coat Factory. They'll never suspect it. I mean seriously, who would shoplift a coat from Burlington Coat Factory? That's why this plan is perfect.
Now if I'm just smart enough to pull it off...
