A Memphis man was arrested at Batesville’s Wal-Mart Sunday for allegedly attempting to walk out with 48 CDs stuffed into his pants.

Rodolfo Espinoza was stopped by a door greeter when the store’s security system went off, according to a Batesville police report filed by patrolman Shenika Hudson.

Espinoza, who had purchased one CD, is charged with shoplifting 48 more valued at $493.59.

The shoplifting suspect eventually admitted to possessing more than the one purchased CD, according to the report, though he at first told the greeter “No” when asked if he “had anything else.”

The door greeter “noticed that his pants legs were big,” the report states.

 The store’s assistant manager was summoned by the greeter then notified the police.

Patrolman Hudson said she and Lt. John Miller searched Espinoza and found the CDs.
