EASTHAMPTON - Three Springfield residents were in court today after police allege they attempted to steal more than $800 worth of merchandise from CVS Pharmacy on Northampton Street.
John Henderson, 42, Ronald Rivera, 43, and Sharon Crochiere, 53, all were arrested Friday at 7:06 p.m. after police pulled over the black Nissan Maxima they were traveling in on Union Street.
A pharmacy clerk had called police to report that a customer had just left the store with multiple bottles of aspirin, allergy medication, a 12-pack of toilet paper, reading glasses, cold medication and 17 four-packs of the energy drink Red Bull, according to Police Captain Donald Emerson. The clerk gave police a description of the vehicle.
Henderson faces charges of operating a motor vehicle with a suspended license and receiving stolen property in excess of $250. Rivera faces charges of receiving stolen property in excess of $250 and shoplifting by concealing merchandise in excess of $100. Rivera also had a warrant out for his arrest. Crochiere faces charges of shoplifting by concealing merchandise in excess of $100 and receiving stolen property in excess of $250, according to police.
All three pleaded innocent to all charges Monday in Northampton District Court and were released on their own recognizance. Judge Richard J. Carey ordered all three to appear in court on Feb. 17 for a pretrial hearing.
