WASHINGTON — A man is being charged with second-degree theft after police say he stole more than $2,000 worth of Red Bull from several CVS locations across the D.C. area.
On Monday, officers arrested 58-year-old Darryl Lamond Quander and charged him with 19 counts of second-degree theft for each time he stole reportedly from a CVS location. In addition to taking thousands of dollars worth of Red Bull, Quander also allegedly stole a few hundred dollars worth of household goods and hygiene products.
According to police, Quander has no fixed address, so it is unclear if he was taking these items to resell for money or for his own personal use. Charging documents show he targeted one CVS along 16th Street 10 times dating back to late February. Surveillance photos show Quander entering the store wearing the same clothes and leaving the stores with a basket or bags full of items.
