PUEBLO, Colo. — A man seen on video allegedly robbing a Pueblo Family Dollar appears to be in need of a belt more than the items he’s accused of stealing.

The video of the Sunday morning incident shows the alleged robber lose his pants during a struggle with an employee outside the store. 

After the scuffle, the suspect yanks an item from the hands of the clerk, pulls his pants up and walks away.

But he didn't get too far. The video of the clumsy robbery made the rounds on social media, resulting in a quick arrest.

Pueblo Police arrested Jeremy Aragon Tuesday in the south side of the city. It’s not clear what charges were filed in the case.
