Description
CLEARWATER, FL — Remember the hugging bandit who preyed on older men in Clearwater and elsewhere?
In November, police reported a woman who would approach older men at stores and other public places, pretend to know them, give them a hug and then steal their wallets.
Clearwater police say they've now arrested a woman who is facing more than a dozen charges from Clearwater police and other law enforcement agencies after being identified as the hugging bandit.
On Thursday, police arrested Kathy Stevens, 65. She's charged with at least four cases in Clearwater.
