DEDHAM (CBS) – Police arrested a man accused of stealing candy bars from a Dedham convenience store after they found weapons and drugs in his car.
A Massachusetts State Police trooper responded to a report that a man had stolen several candy bars on Monday.
The suspect removed five candy bars from his pockets and the trooper soon learned that the man's driver's license was expired.
During a search of the man's car, police found several knives, multiple guns, and drugs.
Police arrested the 40-year-old Canton man, who they did not identify, and charged him with shoplifting as well as gun and drug charges.
He was held on $15,000 bail until his arraignment Tuesday in Dedham District Court.
