MARLBOROUGH – A Best Buy employee was arrested Wednesday after police say he stole numerous electronics valued at more than $7,000 during the past six months.
Best Buy officials conducted an investigation after several items went missing from the Donald Lynch Boulevard store. A corporate loss prevention officer and store manager called police Wednesday after identifying employee Christopher Warman, 35, as the suspect, said police spokesman Detective Scott DeCiero.
Store officials gave police an inventory of the stolen items which included iPads, computers, Apple watches, Fitbits, a Madden 18 PlayStation 4 game, Apple airpods and Apple pencils, said DeCiero. A police report did not indicate how the items were removed from the store.
Warman, of Worcester, was arrested at the store Wednesday night.
Warman, of 203 Belmont St., Apt. 2, was charged with eight counts of larceny over $250 and one count of larceny under $250.
