La Mesa police first heard about the threat when the store reported the theft on July 21.
The man packed a cart full of items at the Albertson’s on Fletcher Parkway.

That’s when he threatened to shoot and kill the clerk police said.
Detectives later identified the suspect as Robert Titus, Jr., 23, of San Diego. They arrested him on Aug. 17 at his home.
He’s been booked on one charge of robbery.
