I guess it would be ok to steal a piece of candy from a store. I mean they are cheap, right? Sorry, stealing is stealing whether it is something worth five cents or five million dollars.
It could be that the gentleman who plugged in the cart had the mentality that it was just a few cents and could see no wrong in what he was doing. I wouldn't be surprised to hear that he argued with the police officer and, possibly, whoever reported him.
