More

Police on Monday arrested a 25-year-old Brooklyn, N.Y. man who stole a pack of cigarettes from the Mobile station on a Friday night this past summer.

At about 10:47 p.m. on June 19, officers were dispatched to the gas station on South Avenue downtown on a report of the theft of a pack of Marlboros, according to police.

The Mobil station posted a video of the theft on its own Facebook page and called for the public’s assistance in identifying the thief, a police report said.

That helped with an investigation that led police to identify him, the report said.

At about 11 a.m. on Oct. 5, he turned himself in on a sixth-degree larceny charge.

Police released the man after he promised to appear Nov. 4 in state Superior Court.
