A man from the central east coast of Florida was arrested after reportedly keeping out of sight in the bathroom of a drugstore and helping himself to snacks after the business closed for the night.
According to reports, at around 9:45 PM on July 14, a 46-year-old man went into a Walgreens in New Smyrna Beach to use their bathroom. He was permitted to use the facilities, but the man reportedly stayed in the restroom much longer than anyone anticipated.
The store closes at 10:00 PM, and the employees reportedly did not realize the man was still in the bathroom when they left and locked up for the night. He reportedly stayed put for approximately five hours before he walked out of the lavatory. He started perusing the shelves and allegedly helped himself to some snacks while he wandered around the store. According to the authorities, he ate chips, Tostitos dip, and candy, and washed it down with Dr. Pepper.
