A MAN has been charged for stealing three bracelets from Joeten Hafa Adai Shopping Center in Garapan last week.
Ricardo N. Omisong, 41, was arrested on Wednesday for theft and was brought for a bail hearing on Friday before Presiding Judge Robert Naraja.
Omisong was released from the custody of the Department of Corrections on Friday after he posted a $1,000 property bond, a 1997 Toyota Corolla.
He will appear in court on Monday for arraignment at 9 a.m.
According to the police affidavit, Omisong was apprehended by a security guard for shoplifting on Jan. 24 at 6:52 p.m.
The security guard then called the Department of Public Safety and reported the incident.
Police Officer Andrew Santos, who was dispatched to the scene, saw the surveillance footage of Omisong taking three items and walking out of the store without paying for them.
When asked for his name, Omisong identified himself as “Ray Cepeda.”
But his true identity was discovered from previous arrest records and he was identified as Ricardo Omisong.
