CORPUS CHRISTI - This past weekend's WWE show at the American Bank center drew a large crowd for the televised event, but one Corpus Christi man is accused of trying to sell tickets for the same seats to multiple people.

According to police, a 22-year-old woman met up with 33-year-old Marcus Zamarripa after seeing his Facebook posting about tickets for the event.

The woman told officers she later found out the tickets were fake, so she went back on the social networking site and found he was meeting someone else at a restaurant to sell tickets for the same seats.

Police were waited for Zamarripa as he arrived to meet his next alleged victim early Sunday evening. According to police, he was carrying several copies of the tickets.

He's charged with misdemeanor fraud.
