Statick Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 'Thelma Lou' robbed in 'Mayberry'The Associated Press MOUNT AIRY - The actress who played Thelma Lou on "The Andy Griffith Show" was robbed in the town that inspired the show's idyllic Mayberry setting, after moving to the area to avoid big city crime.Betty Lou Lynn had her wallet stolen at a shopping center in Mount Airy, the birthplace of Andy Griffith.The Mount Airy News reports that police arrested Shirley Walter Guynn of Cana, Va. He's being held in Surry County Jail on a $10,000 bail. It was not immediately clear Thursday if he has a lawyer. (with that handle, it's no wonder he's a criminal...)In an earlier interview with the newspaper, the 83-year-old Lynn said she moved to Mount Airy after being robbed three times in Los Angeles. In the TV series, Thelma Lou was the girlfriend of Deputy Barney Fife, played by Don Knotts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
