Wilsonville, Ore. (CBS SEATTLE) – An Oregon man finally met face-to-face with a Wisconsin woman he’d met online for their first date – only to have her run off with his wallet containing only $2, police say.
The bad first date began after Jeffrey Mack, 23, of North Plains decided to meet up with a young woman he’d met through online conversations on MeetMe.com, The Oregonian reports. The woman suggested over the internet relay chat site that the two should meet at a Wilsonville Arby’s restaurant and Mack agreed.
The two met in the Arby’s parking lot around 10 p.m. Monday night and Heather Dureen Hegre, 20, got into Mack’s vehicle and persuaded him to buy her a milkshake at the fast-food drive-up window. Mack handed the Arby’s window clerk a $5 bill and received two $1 bill in change, which he tucked into his wallet and set it on his center console.
But Hegre grabbed his wallet, opened the door and sprinted across the Town Center parking lot, Sgt. Dan Kraus of the Wilsonville Police Department told The Oregonian.
Mack called police and provided them with Hegre’s cell phone number, which deputies called to arrange another Arby’s rendezvous. And around 1:45 a.m., Wilsonville police identified her maroon minivan with Wisconsin plates, arrested her, and returned the wallet to Mack.
“The two $1 bills were still in the wallet,” Kraus said. “That was all the money he had.”
Kraus said the woman confessed to taking the wallet and a search of her minivan revealed hypodermic needles, two jars of hash oil, marijuana pipes, a scale and a pill bottle of what authorities believe is methamphetamine.
Hegre was booked into the Clackamas County Jail before being released ahead of a grand jury investigation.
“It will not go down as a good first date,” Kraus said. “But at least he got his wallet and his $2 back.”
