Stand-off suspect appears in Jackson Co. court

LEDBETTER

Medford, Ore.– A Central Point man accused of shoplifting, injuring a Walmart employee who tried to stop him and causing an hour long stand-off with police appears in court.

25-year-old Allen Shane Ledbetter stood before the court Wednesday to hear a plea deal offer from the state.  If Ledbetter pleads guilty he would serve 37 months in prison, a generous offer according to the court.

Police say Ledbetter and an accomplice stole $39 worth of bras and paint from the north Medford Walmart in August 2015.

Ledbetter will have a week to decide if he wants to accept the deal or go to trial.
