Police: Education official stole ketchup

ORANGE, Calif. (UPI) -- Authorities said a trustee with California's Orange Unified School District has been charged with stealing a bottle of ketchup from a university cafeteria.

Sgt. Dan Adams of the Orange Police Department said trustee Steve Rocco was detained by Chapman University public safety officers after he allegedly took the ketchup bottle from the cafeteria at about 10:30 a.m. Saturday, the Riverside (Calif.) Press-Enterprise reported Tuesday.

"One of the security guards saw him take a 14-ounce bottle of ketchup off of one of the tables," Adams said. "He concealed it and started to ride away on a bike."

Adams said Rocco was detained by campus security while Orange police were called. Rocco was cited on a charge of petty theft and released. He could face a fine of up to $250.
