ROANOKE, Va. � A Virginia store has had 20 right-foot shoes stolen over the course of three break-ins this year.
The Roanoke Times reported Roanoke County police arrested 21-year-old Manuel Carlos Ramirez-Godoy in the Oct. 14 burglary of Clean Soles, seizing seven right-foot Nike Air Jordans and a sweatshirt printed with �Call My Lawyer.�
Clean Soles operator Rob Wickham previously said he typically keeps right shoes on display, while their other halves rest behind the counter.
A warrant states police had found a cash register behind the store, along with a backpack containing merchandise worth $5,000 and Ramirez-Godoy�s student ID.
Court records show Ramirez-Godoy is charged with grand larceny, destruction of property and other counts.
Despite the sweatshirt�s instructions, it�s unclear whether Ramirez-Godoy has a lawyer.
