— A 30-year-old man was arrested Monday, 12:07 p.m. in the area of North Stewart and John streets on a misdemeanor charge of petit larceny. A 24-year-old woman with him was also charged with petit larceny and obstructing, a Carson City sheriff’s deputy said.
According to the arrest report, deputies were dispatched to a grocery store in the 500 block of East William Street. The male suspect allegedly stole two sodas and ran out of the store where he met up with the woman. They were asked to stop by security, with both running from the store. The woman’s vehicle was subsequently found in the store’s parking lot.
The two began running with the man and woman separating and him tossing the sodas. An Alternative Sentencing officer located the man on North Stewart and John Street. The woman saw the commotion and came to investigate on foot and tried to walk away from the scene as if she didn’t know the man. She was identified by witnesses as an accessory. The man momentarily denied knowing the woman and then denied she was involved in the incident.
The woman became uncooperative with deputies, flailing her arms, yelling and arguing. When officers attempted to detain her after they learned she was an accessory, the woman resisted, saying she was pregnant and would sue. She was safely placed in handcuffs and continued to argue with deputies. She faces charges of petit larceny and obstructing. Bail: $764. Bail for the 30-year-old male suspect, $352.
