Man arrested 153 times

A man from Portsmouth, New Hampshire has been arrested for the 153rd time, one week after being released from a 1 year jail term on a previous theft charge.

Paul Baldwin was arrested on charges of assault Sunday, a week after finishing a one-year jail sentence for stealing a $1.99 can of beer. The victim alleges that Baldwin punched him at a local market and then called police.

Baldwin was arraigned June 1 by video from the Rockingham County House of Corrections. Baldwin has no address and has been in trouble with the law previously for misdemeanor charges, including drinking in public, tresspassing, petty theft, assault, social security fraud, etc.

He was also cited twice for violation-level offenses during his first week out of jail, once for a trespassing on the railroad tracks and another time for having an open container of beer.

Baldwin is wearing a mask in the photo because he has an undiagnosed respiratory condition.
