OKLAHOMA CITY, OK -- Police have arrested a man accused of stealing meat from an Oklahoma City Wal-Mart Neighborhood Market.

According to police, a Wal-Mart security officer at the Wal-Mart located at 1500 S.W. 59th Street, witnessed 40-year-old Rojelio Martinez enter the store's meat department and select eight pork loin ribs and put them down his pants.

Martinez attempted to exit the store without paying, and the security officer approached him and identified himself as security. Martinez attempted to run, and the security officer placed him on the ground and handcuffed him.

According to police, the security officer noticed Martinez had tied his shoelaces around his ankles to prevent the meat from falling out of the bottom of his pants.

Martinez was subsequently booked into the Oklahoma County jail on one count of larceny.
