On 1 Jun 09 an employee of Duke and Duchess,
100 Main Street, Lowell, reported she was in the process of
activating two $100 Visa debit cards when the customer purchasing
the cards fled the store without paying for the items. Armed
with a description of the suspect’s vehicle, Sgt. Eddy
located the vehicle and conducted a traffic stop on State Route
821 near Glendale Road. When questioned, the driver informed
Sgt. Eddy that he did not enter the convenience store but his
passenger, Paul T. Willey Jr., age 27, 723 S. Eighth Street,
Cambridge, did. Asked if he was in possession of any debit
cards, Mr. Willey produced four debit cards, including two
matching the description of those stolen. Mr. Willey further
revealed that he attempted to purchase the cards with a check
from his girlfriend but the draft was declined. Saying he would
retrieve alternate funding from his vehicle, Mr. Willey left
the store with the debit cards and did not return to pay for
them. As a result of the incident, Sgt. Eddy arrested Mr. Willey
for theft and transported him to the Washington County Jail.
