It wasn't immediately clear why he needed the paper towels.

Hillsborough County deputies arrested Vigo, 20, about 12:18 a.m. Tuesday.

Vigo broke out a side window of a home in the 3400 block of West Lambright Street, entered the home and fled with the items, a criminal arrest affidavit states. He was found carrying the items less than a block away.

He had a large folding knife in the front right pocket of his pants, deputies say.

He did more than $1,000 damage in the house, the affidavit states.

Vigo, of 3132 W. Lambright St., Apartment 311, was charged with armed burglary, criminal mischief and petty theft.

He was still in Orient Road Jail this morning. No bail had been set.
