After reportedly stealing a hat and pair of sunglasses from the locker room - valued at an estimated $180 - Green left the building, reports stated.

Police caught up with Green in an alley between East Seventh and East Eighth streets on North Warren Avenue and apprehended him, reports stated.

According to reports, Green admitted taking the hat and sunglasses from the locker room.

A search of Green's backpack revealed the hat and sunglasses, a knife and a blank personal check that was not in Green's name, reports stated.

An identification check revealed that Green had a warrant for his arrest because of a probation violation, reports stated.

Green was cited on suspicion of first degree burglary, probation violation, theft, interference with an educational institution and prohibited possessor. He was booked into Pima County Jail, reports stated.
