Police arrested a 79-year-old Daly City man following a shoplifting spree in downtown Menlo Park on Nov. 17.

James Anderson of Daly City was arrested on charges of second-degree burglary, receiving stolen property and petty theft, said Officer Paul Phu. Another suspect, described as a white man in his 20s, is still at large, said Officer Phu.

Jewelry, a stuffed animal and other items were taken from four stores in the 600 block of Santa Cruz Avenue -- Walgreens, Cheeky Monkey toy store, Dolma, and Look clothing boutique, according to Menlo Park police Sgt. Sharon Kaufman.
