(La Porte County, IN) - A man is accused of not paying for a box of chicken wings and other food related items at Walmart last evening.

 

Police said James Woodson, 43, of Michigan City was at a self-checkout machine but didn’t price scan everything in his shopping cart. 

 

He was stopped by an asset protection officer while leaving and it was only then that he offered to pay for the merchandise, police said.

 

The 9 ounce box of frozen chicken wings and the other unpaid for items, including frozen crab meat and pet food, were valued at more than $60, police said.

 

Police said Woodson was given a summons to appear in court on a theft charge.   Walmart also banned him from coming back to the store.
