DAVENPORT, Fla. - A man with an extensive criminal history is back in jail after admitting to police that he stole a package off a Davenport home's porch because a friend dared him to do it, according to police.

David Forrester, 51, was taken into custody after a Davenport sergeant and officer noticed him biking along North Blvd. and recognized him from surveillance video of a recent theft in the Blue Vale Drive neighborhood.

When confronted, Forrester admitted to stealing the package, which ended up being an $89 metal cat litter box. The box was still unopened, and he told investigators that he didn't know what was inside the stolen package.
