Attention Wal Mart Customers - 2 for 1 on TV's... NOT!

OKC, OK - Two Wal Mart customers tried to pull a two-for-one on televisions and instead are looking at a date with the judge.

According to a probable cause affidavit, Ken Casady, 31, and Trevor Mortensen, 22, (who we will refer to as Tweedle-Dee and Tweedle-Dum respectively) walked into the Wal Mart on West Reno in OKC on the afternoon of December 8.

Dee and Dum promptly proceeded to the electronics department and picked out a spiffy TV for $618.

After paying for and placing the TV in their car, it hit them - they only bought one TV but there are two of them. Now, that hardly seems fair.

So, Dee and Dum walk back into the store, with their trusty receipt in hand, and proceed to place an identical TV into their basket and out the door they went.

Unfortunately for them, those pesky Wal Mart security officers were none too impressed and detained the duo until police arrived.

Tweedle-Dum (Mortensen) the younger of the two seems to have been down this road before.

A quick review of his criminal past shows a current case in Oklahoma County court for felony grand larceny, arson, obtaining money under false pretenses, pointing a firearm and 6 counts of concealing stolen property.
