Man Arrested for Shoplifting May have been Involved in Other Thefts

A man is accused of shoplifting hundreds of dollars worth of merchandise from Kmart, 5141 Douglas Ave., on Wednesday.

Police arrested Craig Buck Jr., 31, of Mukwonago, after he allegedly stole almost $500 in video games, but this wasn’t Buck’s first retail theft.

According to a report by the Caledonia Police Department, Buck was arrested in his car after he fled the store when a security officer inside Kmart confronted him about taking the items. Buck had an active warrant from probation and parole and had been a suspect in another retail theft on Feb. 10 where over $700 in merchandise was taken from Kmart.

The Franklin Police Department and the Racine Police Department believe Buck may be connected to other thefts in their jurisdictions as well.
