A Florida couple is accused of stealing approximately $500 from a laundromat's change machine, and then using the money to do laundry at the same laundromat.
Deputies at The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office said the man used a modified key at a Tampa laundromat to open the change machines and steal about $500 in quarters.
Authorities said a surveillance camera from the laundromat shows the two suspects doing their laundry with the same coins.
The man is described as white, between 25 and 35 years old, with a sleeve tattoo on his left arm and another tattoo on his inner right bicep.
Two thousand quarters weigh about 25 pounds.
