WAREHAM PD/B&E MOTOR VEHICLES
3/13/18
A 37 year old Carver woman was arrested Friday morning by Wareham Police after she was spotted attempting to enter vehicles in the Walmart parking lot.
Police confronted Christine Erickson as she was apparently rummaging through a tool box on the back of a pickup truck.
The owner arrived on the scene and alleged that Erickson had broken into his truck and stolen other items before breaking into the tool box. While checking the area, officers noticed a vehicle parked near the pickup had also been entered and had items removed.
During their investigation, police discovered that Erickson drove to Walmart in a Ford Escape that had been reported stolen from a driveway in Middleboro earlier in the day.
She was charged with two counts of B&E into a motor vehicle, larceny under 250-dollars and receiving stolen property. She will also face charges from Middleboro Police regarding the stolen Ford Escape.
