Caught Shoplifting In Oregon, at Rite-Aid

When an officer detains you and provides you a court date you have been arrested and will be placed into the court system. When they release you you are realeased on your own recognizance. You might not have been arrested with handcuffs, but even the process of handing you a ticket with a court date means that you will have an arrest record regardless of what happens in court.

When Loss Prevention detained you you were arrested! It was a "citizen's arrest" and is documented as an "arrest" on your record
