(March 25, 2008)-- Pierre Andre Keupp Jr., 17, of Killeen, was awaiting transfer to the Bell County Jail Tuesday after he was arrested on a warrant charging theft over $1,500 in the disappearance of the day’s receipts from the pizza restaurant where he used to work.
The warrant stems from the Dec. 2, 2007 theft of more than $1,500 from the Pizza Hut at 1215 S. Fort Hood St. in Killeen.
Police said Keupp turned up at the Pizza Hut while an employee was counting the day’s receipts and said he was there to give another worker a ride.
The employee who was counting the money was called to the back of the restaurant and when he returned he discovered that Keupp and the money were both gone, police said.
Keupp’s bond was set at $20,000.
