Chandler police arrested a man on suspicion of shoplifting Thursday afternoon after they say he tried to steal packages of shrimp and octopus by stuffing them down his pants.

The incident occurred at about 2:45 p.m. at El Rancho Market, 1076 N. Arizona Avenue.

Police say Ricardo Arcos-Lopez concealed the packages in his shorts and passed all points of sale before being stopped at the door by the store manager.
Lopez first gave officers a false name, but when police learned his true identity they found he was wanted on two felony warrants and one misdemeanor warrant, police said.

Lopez told police he was in the country illegally and had been deported once before, according to the report.

Lopez has assumed false identities in the past to avoid arrest, and police found a fake beard and mustache in his possession, the report said.
