A 31 year-old Reno woman was arrested Friday afternoon at 2:07 p.m. in the 1400 block of South Carson Street on a pair of felony violations, a Carson City Sheriff's deputy reported, including burglary and grand larceny.
According to the arrest report, Miranda Rose Reed was taken into custody after law enforcement was dispatched to a South Carson Street business on report of shoplifting.
The responding Sheriff's deputy met with loss prevention staff at the scene. The suspect, Reed, was also present in the loss prevention office.
Loss prevention reported that Reed was observed walking around the store, picking out items and putting them in a shopping cart. She then walked out of the store past all points of sale without paying for the goods.
Reed was stopped by loss prevention staff outside of the store and she returned inside to the loss prevention office, the report said. Total value of the items in the cart was more than $1,990.
Reed agreed to speak with the deputy, the report said, stating that she attempted to steal the items in order to repay a debt she owed.
She said she had lost her job and had no money. She then took out a loan from someone and was unable to repay her debt.
Reed said the man to whom she owed the debt told her what items he wanted stolen, and if she got them for him, her debt would be repaid.
Reed was handcuffed and transported to the Carson City Jail for booking. Bail: $20,000.
In other arrests:
— A 35 year-old Florida man was arrested Thursday evening at 5:41 p.m. in the 500 block of North Carson Street on misdemeanor first-offense driving under the influence (DUI), speeding and failing to maintain a lane of travel, a Carson City Sheriff's deputy reported.
According to the report, a Sheriff's deputy observed a Kia sedan traveling on Carson Street at Tenth streets speeding at about 50 miles per hour (mph). The deputy paced the vehicle for speed and also observed it crossing the fog line multiple times, demonstrating a failure to maintain a travel lane.
A travel stop was conducted and contact was made with the driver, who was noted to have an alcohol odor coming from his breath and his person, the report said. The driver exhibited slurred speech and red, watery eyes.
The suspect driver stated that he had consumed four shots of whiskey the night before. He consented to field sobriety testing (FST), which showed signs of impairment, the report said. A preliminary breath test (PBT) was also obtained upon consent, resulting in a breath-alcohol content (BAC) reading of .176 percent.
The suspect was placed in handcuffs at that point and transported to the Carson City Jail for booking. Bail: $1,000.
— A 25 year-old Carson City man was arrested Friday night at 9:31 p.m. in the area of Long Street and Russell Way on an outstanding misdemeanor bench warrant as well as driving with suspended vehicle registration and driver's license, and no proof of insurance, a Carson City Sheriff's deputy reported.
According to the arrest report, a traffic stop was made on a beige Toyota sedan that was checked by law enforcement and found to have suspended registration.
The Sheriff's deputy was told by the driver that he did not have insurance for the vehicle. A records check of the driver showed a suspended driver's license as well as a Nevada Highway Patrol arrest warrant issued out of Tonopah Township Justice Court in Nye County, the report said.
The suspect was handcuffed and taken into custody at that point, transported to the Carson City Jail for booking. Bail: $866.
