Police say the man who played the lead role in “Juwanna Mann” shoplifted groceries from a Los Angeles supermarket earlier this week.

According to TMZ, Miguel A. Nunez Jr. walked out of a Ralphs grocery store with at least $200 worth of items.

TMZ reported that the credit card Nunez used was declined, “so he just took his groceries in his card and walked right out the front door without paying.”

The website also reported that Nunez attempted to make it right a few days later by returning to the store and offering to pay for the items that were allegedly stolen. Upon his arrival, he was refused entry, placed under citizens arrest and store management called the LAPD.

Police then cited him for misdemeanor shoplifting and released him, TMZ reported.

During the coronavirus pandemic, the Los Angeles Police Department has not jailed people for minor offenses, according to TMZ, but the police still called it an arrest.
