BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) - Buffalo's so-called 'Hugging Bandit' may be up to her old tricks again.

48-year-old Myra Castleberry is once again a suspect in a crime very similar to the ones that got her in trouble two years ago.

Police arrested Castleberry in 2007 for picking the pockets of drunk men downtown while she hugged and fondled them.

She later pleaded guilty and was sentenced to a year in prison.
