Police officers in Baton Rouge, Louisiana arrested a man just before
noon on Sunday who was caught shoplifting nearly $100 in ribs from a
Piggly Wiggly supermarket.
The probable cause report says 54-year-old Eugene Dunn was being held
down in the parking lot by two men when officers arrived. The officers
reported that there were about four packages of meat lying on the
concrete.
The officer removed four more racks of ribs from Dunn's pants.
The person who tried to stop Dunn from stealing the ribs told police
that Dunn placed his keys between his fingers, made a fist, and tried to
cut him with the keys. The man also told police that Dunn was in the
store earlier in the week and "got away with several items after
threatening to shoot" him.
Dunn told police that he was only trying to eat and live. Dunn was
arrested on charges of aggravated battery other deadly weapon and fifth
offense of theft of goods. He is being held in the East Baton Rouge
Parish Prison on a $5,000 bond.
