Flamm was booked into the Ventura County Pre-Trial Detention Facility after arriving for court on an unrelated theft case.
Flamm’s arrest came after a three-week investigation where he was suspected of shoplifting several video games, valued at $900.00.

Detectives determined they had probable cause to arrest him after reviewing the surveillance video.
