Police investigate theft of toilet from hotel

Police in Spartanburg, South Carolina say they have a suspect in the case of a stolen toilet.

Deputies said they were called out to the USA Economy Lodge on Asheville Highway on Friday morning after hotel staff checking a room noticed that the toilet was missing from the bathroom.



The hotel manager told deputies the last person who had rented the room checked out on Feb. 20 and was registered as the only guest.

Deputies said a judge denied a warrant for the hotel guest suspected of the vandalism. The hotel manager said the toilet would cost about $500 to replace.
