Bungled Burglary II
The surveillance video shows the crime: a man smashed the window of a market in Nashua, N.H., and stole a “large quantity” of cigarettes. Then, two women who witnessed the crime decided that was a good idea, and they are seen coming in for cigarettes too. “It does not appear that the male is associated with the two females,” a police spokesman said. But afterward one of the women called police to report the break-in. Once police saw the video, the two women — Meretta Sperow, 36, and Amanda Primeau, 25 — were arrested and charged with felony burglary. The man in the video is still being sought.
