Leslie Miller waited all weekend for a pair of pants she ordered online to arrive at her Indianapolis home. But instead of finding what she ordered, someone left US$25 in her mailbox — with a note apologizing for stealing her pants.

“I was just dumbfounded. Who does that? Who leaves money and a note behind? Who does that?” Miller told CBS 4 in Indianapolis.

According to the TV station, the thief left a note on a US$20 bill saying “Stole your pants Felt sorry about it[sic]” along with an additional US$5 bill.

Miller said she appreciates the gesture but said the money and apology don’t make up for the thief stealing pants that she spent a lot of time searching for online.

“I had been searching for weeks for this certain pair, this certain pattern. I was excited when I got the shipment notice and came back and no pants,” Miller told CBS 4.
