DRAPER — Thanks to tips from KSL News viewers, Draper police have arrested the man they believe stole a woman's diaper bag right out of her church.

Analise Jenson, the owner of the diaper bag, was distressed because the bag contained not only her credit cards, but a list of her passwords.

A surveillance picture from a bank ATM is all police had to go on. But within days, KSL viewers called police identifying the thief as Wilson Anderson.

Anderson's family confirmed it was him. Monday, officers booked Anderson into jail.

"We try to form a partnership with the public. That's what police do," said Draper Police Sgt. Chad Carpenter. "We really want to hear from the community. It really helps us solve a lot of crimes."

Police say Wilson acknowledged the man pictured in the surveillance video is him. He says he didn't get any money from the ATM, but bank records show otherwise.

Anderson also maintains he didn't take the bag from the church. He says he found it outside.
