The officer spoke to all the parties involved, including the alleged shoplifter, Boot.

“It was during this time that police learned Boot had entered the store and attempted to conceal merchandise in a bag, with the intent to steal said product, but was observed and detained by store employees before leaving the premises,” Tarleton alleged. “Boot was subsequently placed under arrest.”

Boot was processed and released on personal recognizance bail and is due in court on Aug. 3.
