FORT COLLINS, Colo. (AP) - Police are asking Colorado women a rather delicate question: Are these your panties? As part of an investigation into widespread underwear theft, police have invited women to view photos of about 1,300 undergarments stolen from laundry rooms near Colorado State University.
Chih Hsien Wu, 43, is suspected of stealing $6,000 worth of undergarments between Sept. 23 and May 18. He was arrested on suspicion of felony theft, and his bail was set Wednesday at $15,000. It was not known whether he had an attorney.
Police issued the invitation as part of an effort to see how many victims there are.
But they won't get to reclaim their undergarments - at least not yet. Police say that once the case is closed, the victims can reclaim their underwear - if they still want it back.
