On Wednesday, October 7, the Oxford police arrested Tikeyra Sims, 26 of Oxford, for two counts of felony shoplifting and Michael Moore, 31 of Oxford for one count of felony shoplifting. Both Sims and Moore were at the Oxford Wal-Mart yesterday when the Wal-Mart employees saw Moore pushing a TV out without paying.
