APPLE VALLEY, Calif. (VVNG.com) — A homeless woman in Apple Valley accused of taking a 35-cent Slim Jim was arrested, officials said.
It happened on October 15, 2019, at the AMPM in the 15300 block of Rancherias Road in Apple Valley.
Just before 2:00 am, the suspect, 24-year-old Shakera Tajahnay Withers, entered the business and took the 35-cent item without paying for it.
Sheriff’s spokeswoman Jackie Alban told VVNG, a citizen arrest form was signed and Withers was arrested and booked at the High Desert Detention Center.
