A Key West T-shirt shop clerk has been arrested on grand theft charges after
charging a Japanese couple nearly $800 for six T-shirts.

David Rothschild, 23, a clerk at Bikini Village on Duval St., gave the
couple a written estimate of $198.89 for the six shirts, but when they got
to their hotel the pair realized their credit card had been charged $798.89.

When they returned to the shop, they said Rothschild was belligerent and
refused to refund the money.

The city has struggled for years to tamp down T-shirt fraud and on Tuesday
stiffened ordinances and increased fines.


Chit they were takin for paying $198 for 6 T-SHIRTS.
