Police nab alleged thief

Davis police arrested a Woodland man suspected of stealing from the local Target store nearly a dozen times.

Lt. Dan Beckwith said Target loss-prevention officers summoned officers to the Second Street store at about 10:40 a.m. Tuesday, saying a man who had shoplifted there “up to ten times before” was at it again.

Officers followed the man as he left the parking lot and stopped his vehicle on Mace Boulevard, reportedly finding $600 worth of store property inside the car.

Robert James Richey II, 42, went to the Yolo County Jail on a felony charge of organized retail theft, Beckwith said.
