A Rochester woman, allegedly caught up in a Nigerian scam operation, now faces criminal charges for stealing from her employer to send advance payments to the scam artists in order to get a promised $10 million.

Jalaine Noella Holtan, 53, 1313 Marion Road S.E., No. 20, is charged with one count of felony theft. A summons has been issued for her to be in Olmsted District Court on Nov. 17.

Police were called July 10 by the area manager for Casey’s General Store after learning from the bank that several deposit bags had not been deposited from one of the stores.

The complaint said Holtan told the manager that she had kept the cash because she owed people money. She said she took about $10,000 to $15,000.

A man was arrested in a South San Francisco liquor store Saturday night after he was found drinking in the store’s walk-in beer cooler while attempting a burglary, according to the Police Department.

Darwin Barrios-Paz, 21, of South San Francisco, was arrested on charges of commercial burglary, possession of narcotics, and giving false identification to South San Francisco police after officers responded to a reported broken window at about 11 p.m. Saturday, and found him drinking in the store’s walk-in beer cooler, police said.

Barrios-Paz had used a cement cinder block to break a window at the store at 71 Camaritas Ave., tampered with two cash registers and put several calling cards into plastic bags, police said.

After admitting to entering the store with intent to commit a theft, Barrios-Paz was arrested and booked at San Mateo County Jail, police said.

Barrios-Paz was also found to be in possession of a small amount of cocaine and marijuana, and used a false Arizona driver’s license to identify himself, police said.

Tip:  Maybe you should start drinking AFTER you’ve finished robbing the liquor store?

Police arrested a man after he got into an ambulance and drove it a few feet because it was partially blocking his car. Police said a 48-year-old man was charged Thursday with driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, operating a vehicle under a suspended license, interfering with police and taking a vehicle without the owner’s permission.

Authorities said the ambulance was parked for an emergency medical call when it partially blocked the man’s vehicle, which was illegally parked in a loading zone.

It’s beginning to sound a lot like Christmas, thanks in part to a local radio station in St. Louis.

WMVN 101.1 FM made the switch to Christmas tunes over the weekend. And listeners have had mixed reactions. 

The station’s program director was asked about the switch and while he could not talk about why the switch was made now, he said Christmas music has been popular, even this early in the season.

When do you think it’s appropriate for radio stations to start playing Christmas music?
