Aberdeen Police arrested a man this week after a trespassing complaint by Walmart. Just before 3pm Sunday officers were called out to the Walmart on East Wishkah after employees said a man who was known to them was trespassing. As officers searched for the man, the suspect jumped into the river to try and elude officers. Once he became too cold, he held on to a wooden structure until he could be pulled to safety. He was checked out by medics and arrested on several charges.
