LEWISTON, Minn.— A Lewiston woman reported belatedly that personal items and money were stolen from her apartment Saturday evening. She had called deputies Monday about 7:40 p.m. about a disturbance that had just occurred at her place behind the Lewiston Country Club in the 300 block of Benson Drive North. She said the disturbance involved the man who stole from her two days earlier. Missing since Saturday, she said, were:
> A case of Michelob Golden beer in bottles.
> A comforter and pillows.
> A $20 bill and a jar with $80 in coins.
The thief, she said, had come back these two days later and just driven off in his pickup truck. Shortly after she recited her account to a sheriff’s deputy, a State Patrol trooper stopped Pierre Lamont Davis, age 36, in his pickup. But, the trooper said, he gave a false name. A second trooper arrived and recognized Davis from previous dealings in a Twin Cities suburb. Then a Winona deputy arrived and confirmed the driver’s real identification through an online photo database — and also discovered he was wanted on warrants from Dakota and Scott counties. As best as officers could determine, Davis had no permanent address but stayed off and on in Lakeville. a south Twin Cities exurb 80 miles from Lewiston. He was in Lewiston visiting a brother.
