Dinner Plans Foiled for Tops Shoplifter Caught With Roast and Kitchen Set

Niagara Falls Police responded to Tops at 1000 Portage Road around 7:50pm on September 6th after reports of a shoplifter.

Upon arrival, officers spoke to security who had Daniel McKean in custody. Security stated that McKean did not pay for several items in his cart, and also that he had attempted to return two coffee pots to customer service. Video footage showed that McKean did not enter the store with the coffee pots, which means he took them off the shelf.

McKean ultimately walked past all points of payment and tried to exit the store without paying for the coffee pots and other items he was hiding. These items include a can opener valued at $12.99, two chuck roasts valued at $17.32 and $21.39, a pots and pan set valued at $57.99, and two blenders valued at $23.99 a piece.

The total value of merchandise taken was $109.69. All items were returned to the store.

McKean was detained and placed in the rear of a patrol vehicle. He was transported to police headquarters for booking and processing.

No further information is available at this time.
