Man with fetish charged with stealing eyeglasses

MILWAUKEE, Wis. - July 27, 2009 Prosecutors said Lowery walked into three shops between April and July and said he had a gun. They say he took more than 500 pairs of high-end glasses including Prada and Gucci brands, but didn't take cash.

The criminal complaint quotes Lowery as saying he "really likes to be around glasses."

He told investigators he tries them on in front of a mirror and then discards them.

Online court records didn't list a defense attorney Monday.
