Northfield Center -- The Summit County Sheriff's Office arrested a Parma woman and issued a warrant for arrest for a Cleveland man July 28 after an employee of a Route 82 business reported the two left the store without paying for $574 in groceries.

According to Stow Municipal Court records, the two have been charged with fifth-degree felony theft. The 55-year-old woman did not enter a plea at her July 29 arraignment and was released from Summit County Jail on a personal bond. A warrant was still out for the 31-year-old man, as of Aug. 9, court records say.

According to a sheriff's report, the employee stopped the woman outside the store, but the man fled in a vehicle, leaving the groceries behind.

Police said that while speaking to the men, they smelled marijuana and saw marijuana seed scattered around the car's interior. Police said they found a marijuana pipe in the vehicle and a scale and a small amount of marijuana in a bag on the Macedonia man.
