William Marrero of Hialeah was charged with larceny and resisting arrest.
The Sheriff’s Office was called to the CVS pharmacy in Key Largo at approximately 7:56 p.m. regarding a theft.
Deputies arrived to find Marrero pacing in the parking lot and said he appeared to be intoxicated and was “behaving” erratically.
