A man was arrested in a Save On Foods parking lot in Princeton February 16, after police discovered two bottles of grapefruit-flavored vodka stuffed in his snow-pants.
Two men pushing grocery carts away from the lot were stopped by police, according to RCMP Corporal Chad Parsons.
One of the carts contained a woman.
Officers discovered one of the males was wanted in Kelowna on a warrant for theft, and a search revealed the stashed booze.
Parsons said it is suspected the alcohol had just been purloined from a nearby B.C. Liquor Store.
The suspect was arrested on the warrant, and held in custody.
