MONROE COUNTY, Fla. – A 37-year-old Islamorada man who stole six electric toothbrushes from Walgreens in Marathon was arrested on Monday morning, authorities said. 
According to authorities, deputies responded to the Walgreens on 53rd Street around 10:40 a.m. where employees and witnesses stated a man walked out of the store with the items without paying. They added he was driving a white Lexus. 
Deputies later identified the man as Tracy Jay Mofield. 
Deputies with the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office said the Lexus was located near Mile Marker 57. Mofield sped away, but officers did not pursue him for safety reasons. 
Authorities said the vehicle was spotted again near Mile Marker 73 where it stopped. 
Deputies said Mofield admitted to stealing the items and stated he threw them off the Long Key Bridge. 
Mofield was taken to jail and was charged with larceny.

    I buy the 4 pack of the store brand. If I remember correctly, I think I paid $1.99 for 4 toothbrushes. $166.00 for a toothbrush is ridiculous.

    they weren't every day dollar store electric tooth brushes you get off the shelf. 
I cant believe you hillbillies have never heard of a sonicare brush. and yes, they are $150+.. Ive had mine over 10 years, only have to buy the heads 2-3 times a year. they also have a storage tray that uses UV light to sanitize the heads between brushing.
