A Delaware man was arrested at Belk in The Villages after he allegedly attempted to take cologne and a pair of Jessica Simpson sunglasses from the store without paying for them.
Anthony V. Moore, 26, of Smyrna, Delaware, entered the store in La Plaza Grande on Friday evening and was spotted by the store’s loss prevention officer when he attempted to leave the store with the items, according to an arrest report from the Lady Lake Police Department. Moore had removed a security sensor from the cologne, the report said.
He was arrested on a charge of retail theft and booked at the Lake County Jail. When he was booked at the jail, it was discovered that Moore was also wanted on a Hernando County warrant charging him with violating probation on a charge of possession of a controlled substance.
