Freeda,
I think this guy was one of those who had the mentality that if he was stealing from an unknown, and unlikely to get caught, that it is OK. These are the same people who complain about something insignificant in a restaurant to get some freebies, that try to sue for any minor infraction (after all, an insurance company can afford it...), that suggest splitting the bill, when their dinner makes up more than 50% of the total and that stiff the waitstaff of a fair tip.
I think your husband did the right thing. If this man tries this again, I would tell him that you are calling the police. This is stealing, plain and simple.
