All he had to do was ask how much to pump some cheese into the bag of chips. Sheesh. In jail over 75 cents worth of cheese sauce.

Maybe the guy double-dipped his chip.

The clerk and manager let this get completely out of hand. They should have let the guy walk out of the store, then put up a sign by the cheese dispenser so it would be clear to customers in the future. Now all they have is bad publicity for their store. The customer in this case surely knew he was pushing the envelope and overreacted probably from shame when called on it.

No kidding, they overracted. They should have given him some gum too, and sent him out to recruit other thieves.
Oh, wait, maybe that’s how he came to be there.

I tend to say that this won’t play as bad publicity for the store because if the story is accurate then it is pretty accurate who was in the right and who was in the wrong.
How many people will stand up for the thug with a badge?

This would be bad publicity amongst shoplifters only.

At least this guy got caught and will pay for his theft.
And it WAS theft.
There was a story recently about a new thing called “swarming” where a bunch of people dive into a store for a major grab-fest and split — apparently believing that the dollar amount will be too low for the cops to worry about and that the risk of the clerk intervening is negligible.
When I was a kid there was a bake shop nearby that used to get the same treatment from Gypsies. An old lady owned the place and usually moved pretty slow — but she was quick as lightning to slam and lock the doors when a ratty Oldsmobile or Caddy full of Gypsies bottomed into her parking lot.
