A store employee told deputies that a man had walked out with a cart full of items – and didn’t pay.
By coincidence, deputies were conducting a welfare check on a man just outside of the store – the same man, according to the department.
Deputies placed the man under arrest, and as he was being searched, they found drugs on him.
The 30-year-old from Bremerton was booked into the Kitsap County Jail.
