Four men were arrested after a police investigation into a reported theft incident at a Walmart store in Carbonear on Tuesday.
Harbor Grace RCMP was notified of a reported theft at the store shortly before 11:30 a.m. Tuesday morning.
Police were told that the suspects left the store with various goods – worth about $ 700 to $ 800 – without paying and drove away in a blue jeep.
The car was found a few minutes later on the highway to the Veterans Memorial, heading for Transcanada.
The four passengers in the car were arrested and the stolen property was seized along with goods from another business.
The four men, aged 44 to 57, were charged with theft of less than $ 5,000 and possession of property acquired through crime.
One man is also facing possession of a controlled drug.
The defendants are due to appear in court at a later date.
