Pick another pocket or two....

A former inmate should have checked the pockets of his old clothes when he decided to swap them for new duds in a shopping mall dressing room and leave without paying.Instead, Vincenzio James Capizzano left an old prison ID badge in the clothing, a move that helped lead to his arrest. Capizzano was located Monday night when deputies pulled over a car he was a passenger in because the vehicle ran off the road.The 25-year-old allegedly made the clothing swap at Beall's Outlet in the Promenades Mall on July 3, Charlott County authorities said. Capizzano was released from prison June 27 after serving time on a cocaine possession charge.When arrested Monday, Capizzano was charged with retail theft in addition to possession of cocaine and possession of drug paraphernalia. He was held on $9,000 bond.The driver of the car, Michele Rene Manion-Bryan, 40, of Port Charlotte, was charged with possession of a controlled substance, possession of medication without a prescription and possession of drug paraphernalia. She was held on $12,000 bond.It was not known if Capizzano or Manion-Bryan had lawyers.
