Moviegoer thinks wallet was stolen

COEUR d'ALENE - Here's what not to do with your wallet when you see a movie: Put it on the floor under your seat.

That's what a movie-goer did Thursday night, and not surprisingly, she forgot it as she and her boyfriend left the Coeur d'Alene theater after seeing "The Backup Plan."

The woman told police they had walked as far as the main exit doors when she realized she didn't have her wallet. The boyfriend ran back to get it, but it was gone.

They said there was only one other couple in the theater and suspected they might have taken it.

Employees searched for the wallet, but couldn't find it.

People seeing movies are advised to be sure to secure their wallets in a pocket.
