A Minnesota man who was allegedly trying to steal jewelry in
Merced on Friday was arrested after accidentally pepper spraying
himself, police said.
The man, Stephan Stanley, 39, was breaking into a glass jewelry
case at JCPenney in the Merced Mall when two men nearby grabbed
hold of him to stop him from stealing the jewelry.
Stanley started fighting the two men and hit one of them with a
hammer, according to a Merced Police Department Facebook post.
He then allegedly tried to pepper spray one of the men but
instead pepper sprayed himself. The two men were able to hold
him down until police arrived.
No one sustained life-threatening injuries in the incident,
according to police, and Stanley was arrested on suspicion of
robbery, assault with a deadly weapon and drug charges.
Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact
Merced Police Officer Jesus Lopez at 209-388-7782 or
lopezj@cityofmerced.org.
