From the Griffith Indiana Police Department—
Who steals 258 cases of ice cream valued at $6,200 in December? Apparently, Christopher Stewart does.
Through the hard work of our Patrol Division, this bold (and chilly) decision earned him a spot on the Naughty List, along with felony theft charges.
Christopher Stewart (34) was arrested on 12/19/2025 for repeatedly stealing ice cream from delivery trucks over several weeks. Surveillance footage and vehicle records linked Stewart to the theft. He admitted to taking ice cream and selling it. Stewart was charged with Theft >$750, Theft with Prior Conviction, and Failure of Duty, and transported to Lake County Jail.
