Officers from the Plymouth Police Department were dispatched to Walmart for two  males attempting to steal a bottle of liquor on just before 7 p.m. Saturday evening.

Officer Witkowski arrived on scene and found two Hispanic males in the parking lot attempting to leave the area. 22-year-old Joshua Yovanny Vargas Alvarado of Dickson Street in Plymouth was arrested and charged with public intoxication, shoplifting, contributing alcohol to a minor, and obstruction of justice.

Alexis Arias, 20, of Beerenbrook Street in Plymouth is charged with public intoxication, shoplifting, and illegal consumption of an alcoholic beverage.

Both individuals were transported to the Marshall County Jail and held on cash bonds.

 

Readers are reminded that charging information supported by an affidavit of probable cause is a mere allegation that a crime has been committed and that there is only probable cause to believe a crime has been committed. They are presumed innocent throughout the proceedings and are entitled to be represented by counsel and entitled to a trial by jury at which the State is obligated to provide proof beyond a reasonable doubt before a judgment of guilt may be made.
