Police were at the right place at the right time to nab a man trying to use the five-finger-discount.
RNC was at a business in the centre city on an unrelated matter when an officer was approached by a loss prevention employee about a person stealing.
The man bolted, merchandise in hand, but could not out-run the officer.
The 40-year-old will appear in court at a later date on a charge of theft under $5,000.
