PORTSMOUTH, R.I. -- Portsmouth police say a repeat thief stole a car, then went back to the scene of the crime two days later to switch it out for a different one. Edward Francis was arrested in Fall River, Mass., while he was sleeping in the second stolen vehicle, Portsmouth police say. The larceny spate started on May 2, when police got reports that someone had stolen a generator and lawn mower out of a shed on Massachusetts Boulevard.
