SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) -- Sioux Falls Police say they arrested a 20-year-old Tea man on Wednesday when he returned to the scene of a crime to retrieve his cell phone.

Police say they got a call Wednesday evening from a woman who saw a man inside her unlocked car. She and a neighbor shooed the man away -- but she noticed later that her digital camera was gone.

The woman called police about an hour later when she saw the same man back in the parking lot of her apartment building.

Officers said they arrested Evan Kelly Kirchen with the camera. He told police he was looking for his cell phone.

Kelly was charged with criminal entry of a motor vehicle and petty theft.
