Only in North Carolina can you find a story where a man was arrested for trying to sell a stolen Olympic torch. Yes, you read that right. The torch was apparently stolen from the 1996 Summer Games in Atlanta and is worth around $15,000. The man tried to sell it at a pawnshop for $200. He was arrested and charged with felony larceny and obtaining property by false pretense.
I mean, seriously? Why would you try to sell a stolen Olympic torch and expect for no one to say anything. In fact, who would actually buy something like that? I bet the guy's bail is a lot more than that torch will ever cost!
