It was not enough that Christine Ruther, 19, broke into a candy store. It wasn’t even the fact that she removed her baby from the stroller to fill it with hot candy. It was the fact that the police were able to follow the candy wrappers to arrest her and her confectionery criminal friends in Cincinnati.
Ruther broke into Minges Candy Store at 1:00 a.m and stole $400 in candy. Following the trial of wrappers, the police arested her and her cohorts, Rebecca Gamble (19), Terrance Ware (18) and Dwight Reed (20). Ruther is also charged with child endangering.
