A Fremont man convicted on two previous occasions for shoplifting is arrested once again. This time, 25-year-old Jason Hinkle faces felony charges.

Investigators say he was caught Sunday trying to steal jeans from the Wal-Mart at 128th and L in Omaha.

Store security officers told police Hinkle and another man took a pair of jeans from the rack to the fitting rooms. While there, according to the police report, the suspect put the jeans in a plastic shopping bag, then tried to leave the store.

Hinkle was arrested during a struggle with store security. The other man got away.

Police were called and after a search found not only the jeans, but camera software in the suspect's pocket and discovered the leather jacket he was wearing still had tags on it.

Hinkle was convicted of shoplifting in October 1996 and September 1998.
