SANATOGA PA – A 20-year-old Lower Pottsgrove (PA) Township man was placed in jail for probation violation following his arrest last week on charges related to an alleged retail theft at the Sanatoga Thriftway supermarket, township police Ofc. Robert Diesinger reported Tuesday (Jan. 31, 2012).

Detained by Montgomery County Adult Probation, and later transported and housed at the county Correctional Facility, was township resident Rasheen Jones, Diesinger said.

Jones and a juvenile were accused Jan. 22 (Sunday) at about 5:11 p.m. of taking two packages of luncheon meat, valued at $7.14, from the store without paying for them, according to Diesinger’s report. Both were arrested following his investigation; Jones, on charges of misdemeanor retail theft and corruption of minors; the juvenile for summary retail theft.

The juvenile, whose name was not revealed due to his or her young age, was later released to a parent.

Appearances on the charges were scheduled in magisterial district court.
