Arrests reports

A 53-year-old Morgan City man wanted for theft from a pharmacy was caught Saturday, and was also charged with obstruction of justice after he admitted to discarding a crack pipe as officers pursued him, Morgan City Police Chief Michael Banks said in a news release.
—Richard M. Giroir, 53, of Arenz Street in Morgan City, was arrested at 10:41 p.m. Saturday for obstruction of justice, resisting an officer, criminal trespass and theft of goods (value $202.96).
Officers were dispatched to a Marguerite Street pharmacy in regards to a man who fled the store, setting off the security alarm at the front door, Banks said. Officers arrived to investigate and through video surveillance video identified the person as Giroir, the same person who was a suspect in a theft which was reported on Sept. 28 at the same pharmacy, Banks said.
Officers went to a residence in the 600 block of Arenz Street to locate the person. Upon speaking with the resident, Giroir fled the residence into the rear yard area. Officers pursued Giroir and observed him attempting to discard an item in his hand, Banks said.
Though Giroir refused to stop, he was eventually captured and admitted to officers that he discarded a pipe commonly used to consume crack cocaine, as officers approached, Banks said.
During the investigation, Giroir admitted to officers that he committed the theft on Sept. 28 of items with a value of $202.96. The over-the-counter type items were not recovered, Banks said. The owner of the residence in which Giroir was captured said that Giroir was not authorized to enter onto the property and was therefore trespassing, Banks said. Giroir was jailed.
