WDTV is reporting that White Hall Deputy Mayor Timothy Ridenour was arrested again Tuesday for additional incidents at the Clarksburg Walmart.
According to the Clarksburg Police Department, Ridenour went to Walmart on Emily Drive to shop for another individual under the “Spark” program on July 14. While at the store, Ridenour put several items in the cart that were not on the Spark receipt, then left the store without paying, according to official reports.
Police determined that Ridenour did the same thing at the same location on five additional dates throughout August and September, totaling $168.27.
Ridenour has now been charged with fraudulent schemes and trespassing in a structure in Harrison County. He was actively trespassed from all Walmart locations as of March 15, 2026.
A $7,000 PR bond was posted after Ridenour was arrested Tuesday.
