PITTSFIELD - Police say a Pittsfield man has been arrested after a video surveillance camera caught him stealing cash from a minor league baseball team's locker room while the players were on the field playing a game.
Police say the camera was installed after previous instances of Pittsfield Colonials player lockers being pilfered, and on Wednesday 42-year-old Robert Wincek was arrested. He pleaded not guilty to larceny charges on Thursday and was released on personal recognizance.
His lawyer did not return a call for comment.
He allegedly took a pair of $20 bills that had been planted by investigators. He then allegedly told police he took the money and had a drug problem.
Authorities tell The Berkshire Eagle that Wincek's son works for the team, which plays in the independent Can-Am League.
