A Florida man is under arrest after police say he stole from a gas station and left his debit card with his name on it at the scene of the crime.
Deputies with the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office responded to an alarm at a gas station early Sunday morning in Palm Coast, Florida, and found the front door of the business unlocked, Fox 35 Orlando reported.
After searching the gas station, deputies found a debit card with the name Lantz Kurtz sitting on the counter near a register.
Security camera footage showed a man entering the store from the back and stealing several items before unlocking the front door and walking out.
Police say they recognized Kurtz, 21, from a vehicle fire earlier in the night, and they found him at the disabled vehicle, where he admitted to breaking into the location and taking the items.
So that I could come back later and pay for it,” Kurtz told police when asked why he left his debit card behind. “Just so they knew my name, you know? Just in case I got picked up. I didn’t want to steal anything. You know, that’s against the law. I don’t know if they teach you guys that.”
Kurtz was arrested and charged with armed burglary of a dwelling/structure and petit theft and was released on a $10,000 bond.

Well, to be fair, he did think that he would be caught.
I’m glad to hear that smokes was caught!
that’s why you always always always use gift cards when braking into places to steal dog food!
He meant to pay for it so give him a break. He just did not realize the store was closed, thus as an honest citizen he left his debit card. I assure you "Slow Joe Biden" would have done exactly the same while hair sniffing.
What a doofus!
The horror...the horror.
Stupid!
Honest.....but stupid!
Couple of weekends picking up trash, restitution for any damage caused or items taken and expungement of criminal record if he keeps his nose clean for one year.
