A Ukrainian man was arrested for shoplifting from a Pattaya convenience store.
Slava Ocnach, 35, was taken into custody Oct. 19 following an incident the day before at the Big C Mini shop on Soi Khao Talo. Police recovered several stolen items along with a pack of dried marijuana.
A Big C Mini store clerk gives police a positive ID of the Ukrainian thief.
Store clerks accused the Ukrainian of stealing merchandise worth 2,547 baht. They found him suspicious, but rather than confront the Eastern European, a clerk simply photographed his motorbike license plate and contacted police.
Ocnach had rented the bike from Sisima Chanda who gave police his contact information.
