Okaloosa County, FL -- We've got an update on the finger-point robbery in Okaloosa County earlier this month -- the suspect has been arrested after returning to apologize several days after the robbery. Investigators say Tonya Jo Reiman walked into a Fort Walton Beach-area Tom Thumb on May ninth with a sweatshirt wrapped around her hand, implying she had a weapon, and walked out with two packs of cigarettes. She returned to the store on Saturday, apologized, and offered to pay ten dollars and twenty-six cents for what she took. Deputies arrested her on the spot. Reiman later admitted she pretended to have a gun and wrote an apology letter to the clerk.
