Chief Deputy Charlie Melton reminds individuals that shoplifting and threatening behavior will not be tolerated.”Three people were found guilty in District Court of shoplifting and banned from that business. Another individual is to have no contact with a different business after making threats while on the premises. In addition to law enforcement, we have a deputy prosecutor who believes strongly in enforcing the law. We value our business leaders in Izard County and this type of behavior will not be tolerated.”
