A liquor store shoplifting suspect was recently arrested after officers were aided by local citizens, according to an official weekly crime report issued by the Roseville Police Department.
John Campbell Graham Jr., 38, of Roseville was reportedly arrested on suspicion of petty theft and resisting arrest.
According to Roseville PD, on Sunday, August 17 at 1:51 pm, officers responded to a report of someone shoplifting at the Rose Liquor, Food & Gas store on the 100 block of Riverside Avenue. According to the report, the suspect had grabbed a pack of beer and ran out of the store.
