FAIR HAVEN — A 37-year-old man from Rutland was arrested two times by Fair Haven police.
On September 27, police were called to Carl Durfees Department Store on Main Street for a reported theft at around 12:15 p.m.
Police allege that Randy E. Klinger entered the store and grabbed a pair of boots, and left without paying for them.
On his way out, police say Klinger pushed a store clerk that asked him to stop causing them to fall against a vehicle parked out front.
On Sunday, police say they arrested Klinger again, following an investigation into another reported theft.
On October 8, police were called to Jiffy Mart after a donation jar was stolen.
Following an investigation, police allege that Klinger stole the donation jar concealing it under his jacket, before fleeing the store.
The jar contained a small amount of money raised for a children’s charity.
He was arrested and issued a citation to appear in court to answer to the charge.
