MASKED MARAUDER PREYS ON FLA. GOLF COURSE

THIEF
HIS attire is that of the classic thief - a black mask and black and white stripy clothes. And for a while the elusive robber got away with his purse theft on the exclusive south Florida golf course.
But when authorities finally found out who was responsible they didn't have to go far, because his hideout was right there - in the bushes.
Groundskeepers at Vero Beach's Sandbridge Golf Club were stunned to the thief who is sneaking purses and stealing golf balls from bags is in fact a raccoon.
The furry bandit was stashing his pilfered goods and when officials
found the animal's hideaway, they found two purses, an assortment of golf balls and empty food wrappers.

But catching the animal is proving to be as difficult as getting out of a sand bunker.
So far the raccoon hasn't fallen for the bait of food set in a trap.
Maybe they should try putting a purse in there.
