BELLINGHAM, Wash. – A Bellingham man was arrested after allegedly threatening employees at two stores with a taser.

Court documents state that two people attempted to leave the Fairhaven Haggen store with a cart full of liquor on January 29th.

When confronted by an employee, one of the suspects pulled out a taser and implied that he had a knife before leaving.

A day later, the same suspect threatened a pet store employee with the taser after trying to leave with another cart full of items.

Police arrested the suspect, 38-year-old Robert Dennis III, shortly afterward.
