Overdue books attracts arrest warrant

A library patron was arrested in Texas for having overdue books
As a teen, you may grow weary of adults telling you what to do all the time. All the well-meaning advice just gets to be too much after awhile. Do this, don't do that, be careful of those—it just seems sometimes that adults worry too much. But you can't really blame moms and dads for being worrywarts. It can be a dangerous world out there.
For instance, do you know where your library books are? Is there an overdue book lurking in the bottom of your closet or under your bed that has somehow escaped your attention? Don't laugh. That little indiscretion just might be the preamble to a long criminal history.
Just ask Judith Galvan of Baytown, Texas. She was recently pulled over for a small traffic violation when the officer on call did a routine check on her. The lawman was alerted to the fact that there was an outstanding warrant for this woman's arrest. The violation? She was harboring overdue library books.
The arrest warrant shows that she was a repeat offender, as there were apparently not one, but three overdue books in her possession.
Just let this be a warning to all you forgetful teens, during these lazy days of summer as you loll on the beach with your books. Don't get too complacent when it comes to the law. Get those books back to the library on time.
