Another Arrest Made For Stealing Energy Drinks In Mansfield

MANSFIELD, CT — State police have made another arrest for an instance of stolen energy drinks from a Mansfield supermarket.

The latest incident was on April 29 at the Mansfield Price Chopper. Barbara Jarvis, 36, is accused of loading up a shopping cart with Monster and Red Bull energy drinks and leaving the store without paying for them, according to a report.

She was charged with sixth-degree larceny and is due in court on May 14, according to a report.

It was the latest arrest involving stolen energy drinks from the supremarket.

Back in December, a 31-year-old man was slapped with larceny charges after being accused of stealing more than $4,000 worth of beverages with an accomplice from not only Mansfield, but Choppers in Vernon, Newington, Windsor, Southington and Middletown, according to a warrant.

Price Chopper has not been alone. In October 2016, State police released security camera images of a man who has been stealing energy drinks from the Big Y supermarket on Storrs Road.

In the summer of that year, state police were investigating several incidents involving a suspect that stole Monster and Red Bull energy drinks in several locations throughout Mansfield, Willimantic and North Windham.
