I am on work visa in Canada. Yesterday I paid for soups(7$) and did not paid for sun-glasses (16$) with my visa card at the store.
I came out of the store and then store security stoped me and took me in side. He said I was taking these glasses with out paying and I agreed. He ask me to sit and started asking my information to fill the required forms (pictureID & Visa card).
At the end he called the COP and cop came in asked me why I did this. I told him its a stupid thing I did for no reason. He asked my status in the country and where I am living. He took my first name & lastname, DOB on a small note pad.
Cop asked me if this is the first time I comited this...I said yes. While talking with cop he said I am under arrtest. Later on he said he is in a good mood so I can go with out any charges. No need to go to court. (All togather with Cop is less than 10 minutes).
Cop did not take any paper work from me. Store security gave a paper saying I should not enter in to that mall for next one year.
No picture taken/no finger prints taken.
My concern: how it's going to effect my PR and future visas to USA/Canada.
In the future should I have to tick for the question that I have been arrested before ?
Please help me.
