Thief Leaves His Debit Card Inside a Michigan Home After Break-In The not so slick alleged burglar was just arraigned in Kent County Thursday. A break-in happened in the small, Northern Michigan town of Alpena on the evening of Halloween in 2020. So, why are we talking about this now? And how is this related to Kent County? I'm glad you asked. This all began when the debit card of 30-year-old James Tanner was found at the scene of a crime. Tanner allegedly dropped his debit card, which had his name on in, after using the card to jimmy the locked door of someone else's home open. The frosting on the cake was that the homeowner actually arrived to find Tanner inside her house. He ran out as she yelled his name. Yeah, she knew him. Weird, right?
