New York man held on bail in Massachusetts Walmart retail crime case
PLYMOUTH – A New York man was held in custody on $50,000 bail in connection with the theft of multiple high-priced ink cartridges from a Halifax Walmart, Plymouth County District Attorney Timothy Cruz has announced.
Travis Moore, 44, is charged with one count of Larceny Over $1200 related to a July incident where he is accused of removing lamps from two cardboard boxes and stuffing the boxes with ink cartridges before paying the listed price for the lamps at a self-checkout station and exiting the store. Moore is also accused of stealing a cellphone charger. The total value of merchandise that was not paid for was $1435.85, according to Walmart Asset Protection personnel.
At a hearing held after Moore presented himself in court, the Commonwealth moved for $250,000 bail. Judge Shelby Smith set Moore’s bail at $50,000 and set conditions of release which include staying away from any and all Walmart locations if released on bail.
Moore is next scheduled to appear in court on January 16 for a probable cause hearing.
