New Hampshire police net alleged shrimp shoplifter

It appears that shrimp was his weakness.

Police said a man wanted for crimes in two states was identified as a suspect in the disappearance of frozen shrimp from the same supermarket four times this month valued at over $500.

On Monday, managers at the Market Basket confronted a 46-year-old man, telling police he was attempting to take more shrimp and that he pushed a manager to try to get away.

Police took the man into custody.

He was arrested on charges of shoplifting, simple assault and being a fugitive from justice. He was arraigned and held on $100,000 bail.

Police said the man was wanted in Oklahoma on a charge of drug trafficking and in Massachusetts on a larceny charge.
