Shoplifter Also Arrested For A Concealed Hatchet In Green River

What could have been a dangerous situation ended up in the arrest of two people at the Green River Pamida Store. Detective Fred Maculski says it all began with the discovery of two people who decided to shoplift.






Maculski says Ruppert actually told officers that he had a concealed weapon on him... a hatchet. When it was found he had a prior conviction for possession of a concealed weapon in Carbon County, he was then not only charged with shoplifting, but also with a felony.






When asked by officers why he was carrying a hatchet, Ruppert said it was for self defense. Both Dunn and Ruppert were taken into custody and transported to the County jail without incident.
