SUTHERLIN, Ore. (AP) - No, your insurance policy probably
doesn't cover damage caused while committing a crime. Police in
Sutherlin, Oregon, charge a 30-year-old man with stealing an
antique slot machine from a home where his wife works as a
housekeeper. According to authorities, the suspect accidentally
broke a window in his van while trying to load the stolen slot.
Investigators say the break in the case came when the suspect's
wife filed an insurance claim for the broken window. The husband
and another man are now charged with burglary and theft. Police say
the wife hasn't been charged and their investigation is continuing.
