An Idaho man thought he had found a clever way to outsmart Walmart's self-checkout system—until police caught on.
According to authorities, 32-year-old Dylan Rockwell used a ring with a homemade barcode to scan a cheap tin of soup while attempting to walk away with hundreds of pounds' worth of goods. He was eventually caught after trying to buy a £240 ($300) grill by scanning a can of tomato soup. The Caldwell Police Department shared the details on Instagram, revealing that Rockwell admitted to repeatedly stealing from the store.
