SHERIDAN, Mich. (WZZM) - A 40-year-old Orleans man has been arrested for trying to steal almost $100 worth of items from a Dollar General store.

At about 9:00pm on Monday night, Montcalm County deputies were called to the store on North Main in Sheridan about a man acting strangely inside the store.  The man had been in the store for 2 1/2 hours and employees had approached him numerous times.  Deputies met the man in the parking lot of the store and found nearly $100 worth of items in his possession.

Investigators believe that the man may have committed similar thefts in neighboring communities and the case remains under investigation.
