(Wanted persons James Lucas, 46, and Natasha Pearce, 37.)
The charges stem from two separate incidents. Police say an employee was sprayed with bear spray on the night of Oct. 31 while trying to stop a man and woman from leaving a mobile home with unpaid merchandise.
As a result, the employee suffered minor injuries.
Meanwhile, police say the pair were also identified in a robbery that occurred at the same business in September.
Lucas faces charges of burglary, theft, possession of a stolen vehicle, possession of a stolen license plate and failure to comply with probation and release order. Pearce is charged with theft, as well as being a passenger in a stolen vehicle, in addition to violations.
The couple have been detained pending their next court appearance on November 28.
