Shoppers' nemesis

11:17 p.m. — 200 block of East Granada Boulevard, Ormond Beach

Breach of peace. Police arrested a 50-year-old Daytona Beach man who entered a local retail pharmacy and began yelling profanities at the front of the store.

A store employee told police that the man caused several customers to stop shopping and leave, according to a police report. 

The man then went outside to the store’s drive-thru and began to shout through the window and pace between both lanes, preventing cars from accessing the drive-thru.

Police arrested the man, who continuously interrupted them as they tried to read him his rights. 

He was taken to jail.

Steak mistake

3 p.m. — 1500 block of West Granada Boulevard, Ormond Beach

Petit theft. A 28-year-old Daytona Beach woman was issued a notice to appear in court after she failed to scan $160 worth of merchandise at a local big box store. 

The store’s loss prevention employee spotted her on a security camera failing to scan items at checkout, according to a police report.

When confronted by police, the woman said she hadn’t been trying to “skip scan,” and was just in a rush. 

However, she did admit that she didn’t scan one item on purpose: a $38 steak. 

The rest, she told police, were accidental.
