Craig Monroe

Craig Monroe (born February 27, 1977 in Texarkana, Texas) is a left fielder in Major League Baseball who currently plays with the Detroit Tigers and has a career batting average of .260.

In December 2004, he was arrested for trying to steal a belt from a department store in Florida. Police arrested Monroe on Dec. 3 after they say he wrapped a $29.99 belt around his waist and tried to leave without paying for it. He was released on bond the same day. Monroe, who made $335,000 that year, agreed to enter a diversion program in order to have the petty theft charge against him dropped.
