Oregon man searching for work accused of stealing from new job

Gray, a part-time worker at the Clackamas County library information network and the Tigard Public Library, sold at least $10,000 worth of library materials online in the past six months, according to the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office.

According to Jim Strovink, a sheriff’s office spokesman, Gray would check out books, then tap into the library computer system and record them as returned. —Oregon man searching for work accused of stealing from new job (Seattle Times/AP)
