 State police say Gregory Rodriguez, of Ossining, is charged with fourth-degree grand larceny. 
 
 Rodriguez works at the A&P in Croton-on-Hudson. Police were called Monday about the theft. Rodriguez was arrested Tuesday. 
 
 A state police spokeswoman, Trooper Melissa McMorris, says the theft occurred in one day. She did not know if it involved more than one trip to the store. 
 
 Rodriguez was arraigned Tuesday night in Cortlandt and sent to the Westchester County Jail. The court clerk says no lawyer was present and no plea was entered. 
 
 Rodriguez is due back in court with an attorney on Friday.
– Sometimes, a simple plan works best if you're a criminal. And sometimes, that plan to shove $1,200 worth of meat down your pants and walk out of a supermarket undetected doesn't end so well. Police in Cortlandt, NY, have charged Gregory Rodriguez with grand larceny after accusing him of doing just that at the A&P where he works, reports the local Daily Voice. Rodriguez was actually arrested a day after the theft, and two burning questions sadly remain unanswered, according to the AP and the Journal News: How many trips did it take, and where's the meat now?
