A Bad Case Of Indigestion
Goleta Valley, CA
Shortly after fleeing a grocery store on foot, the thief — who’d nearly been caught stealing merchandise by store security personnel — was apprehended by deputies at a nearby bus stop on the South Turnpike Road. Tucked into his clothing, authorities uncovered over $200 worth of over-the-counter antacids. Among the stolen goods were three boxes of Zantac, three boxes of Pepcid and three boxes of Prilosec.
The 25-year-old male, booked into jail for commercial burglary and conspiracy to commit the crime, refused to speak to deputies during his arrest.
