21-year-old Devon Ware was caught stealing money and merchandise from his job at MAPCO on Dickerson Pike on July 25th. When officers arrived, they spoke with a district manager for MAPCO who claimed that Ware had stolen $1800 worth of money and merchandise over a week while on shift. The manager provided footage from July 18th showing Ware stealing cash from the register and a “money vending machine” next to the register, making multiple withdrawals during his shift.
The district manager also gave officers a receipt from the register showing that $1702.81 was missing. Additionally, the manager claimed that the remaining $100 came from the merchandise Ware had given out to customers for free. When officers spoke with Ware, he admitted to stealing money from the register but disputed the total amount taken. As a result, Ware was then taken into custody for property theft.
