Williamstown Man Arrested for Carrying Concealed Weapon without a Permit at Walmart

A Williamstown man was behind bars Saturday after allegedly spraying a Walmart manager with pepper spray Thursday and going back to the store with a concealed weapon that didn't have a permit.

Marietta police said Bryce Barnes was arrested Friday night for carrying a concealed weapon without a permit at the Marietta Walmart.

Police say the 19-year-old is also facing charges for several incidents that happened at the same store the night before.

According to police, officers first responded Thursday night when Barnes parked in a handicap spot and then went inside the store, stole a soda, threw it at the manager and then sprayed the manager with pepper spray.

Police said Barnes faces charges of assault, theft, criminal mischief, and aggravated trespass.
