Man returns stolen beer saying they weren't cold enough

After reportedly stealing beer from a Clarksville gas station, a man brought the drinks back minutes later and attempted to exchange the stolen beers because they weren’t cold enough.

A clerk told police that she went into the back of the store while re-stocking the beer, and when she returned a few cases were missing, according to a Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office report.

At that point, the man — who appeared drunk, the clerk said — came in with the warm beer and asked to exchange it.

When the clerk asked if he’d paid for the beer, he grew “anxious,” the report said, asked for directions to Wilma Rudolph Boulevard and left.
