Employees told police that Mr. Francis did not have permission to drink the beer within the store, nor did he have any way to pay for it.

He was charged with misdemeanor petty larceny, held for a couple of hours, and released on an appearance ticket to await a May 25 date with East Hampton Town Justice Court.
