A 24-year-old man was arrested Monday at the Neiman Marcus in the Gold Coast after the store’s security K-9 alerted that the man had a gun, according to a police report.
Derrick Latham, of the Englewood neighborhood, is facing charges of aggravated unlawful use of a weapon, retail theft and possession of a controlled substance, the report said.
A Neiman Marcus spokesperson said in a statement that the company is committed to providing a “safe and enjoyable in-store experience” for associates and customers. “To reinforce our commitment, we are investing in additional security measures in select stores,” the statement said. “In addition to Neiman’s full-time in-store security team, we are now working with a private security firm and its K-9 unit for weapons detection.”Around 2 p.m., officers were called to the Nieman Marcus, at 737 N. Michigan Ave., where they met with a manager, the report said.
Latham then left the store through the Michigan Avenue exit without paying, the report said. A security officer with the K-9 stopped Latham outside the store on the sidewalk and found that he had a loaded 9 mm handgun in his waistband. The security officer also found that Latham had 16 fake $100 bills, seven loose 9 mm rounds and five white pills believed to be Xanax, the report said.Latham appeared in court Tuesday in front of Judge Susana Ortiz, who set his bail at $30,000 with electronic monitoring and no contact with Neiman Marcus, according to court records.Latham was arrested earlier this year for aggravated battery against a police officer, which is still an ongoing court case, according to court records.
