SOMERSET Chief George McNeil recently reported that the Christmas spirit was alive and well in Somerset, thanks to one of his officers.
Officer Matt Lima responded to Stop & Shop, 815 Grand Army Highway, Dec. 20 for a report of a shoplifting in progress.
Lima spoke to a Stop & Shop asset protection associate who told him that he observed the suspects, two women with two young children, not scanning all of their groceries and then putting them into shopping bags at the self-checkout kiosks. The associate then printed the transaction receipt and noticed numerous items they took were missing. The suspects were subsequently asked to return inside with their items while they awaited Somerset police.
