Sock it to me! Ariz. man's socks stolen from yard

[August 21, 2009]  SIERRA VISTA, Ariz. (AP) -- Someone must have really needed some socks.

A southern Arizona man is out a dozen pairs of socks after someone sneaked into his back yard early Monday and stole socks off a clothesline.

He told the Cochise County Sheriff's Office that at some point between late Sunday and early Monday, someone entered his fenced-in back yard and made off with 12 pairs of white athletic socks that were hanging on a clothesline. A motion sensor light was also damaged.

Sheriff's Office spokeswoman Carol Capas said the lost and damaged property totaled about $50.
