A Roseburg man was jailed following an alleged incident at a store in Roseburg on Thursday.

A Roseburg Police report said at about 7:40 a.m. the 32-year old allegedly entered Walmart in the 2100 block of Northwest Stewart Parkway after being previously trespassed from the business. The report said the man unrolled a sleeping bag from a shelf and then fell asleep in the sporting goods section of the store.

An officer contacted the suspect who admitted to the offenses. Joshua Vernon was charged with second-degree counts of criminal trespass and criminal mischief and for a parole violation. Vernon was detained without bail.
