Rochester, MN (KROC AM News) -The Pure Pleasure stabber has been apprehended.

Authorities were able to use surveillance video to identify 29-year-old Caleb Siler as the man who stabbed an employee of the Stewartville business in the leg Wednesday during an attempted

shoplifting.

Olmsted County Sheriff’s Office Capt. Scott Behrns says Siler was caught trying to steal a sample bottle of cologne. Siler fled when the employee called 911. Behrns says the employee chased Siler outside and that’s when the stabbing occurred. The 52-year-old employee was taken to St. Marys Hospital where he was treated and released.

Siler was found at a Rochester motel Wednesday afternoon but had to be taken to St Marys because of an apparent drug overdose.

His girlfriend - 31-year-old Anna Siegele - was with him and was arrested. Behns says she was with Siler during the shoplifting and apparently helped him get away.
