Grand Chute Police say they've arrested a man for allegedly trying to rob the Scheels store near the Fox River Mall.
 
Officers say they received the call of the possible break in just after midnight when the store's alarm system went off.
 
When police arrived they found a 21-year-old Manawa man inside wearing a disguise and holding several items used for the alleged break-in including a blow torch.
 
Officers believe the man may have stolen 3 long-guns from the store before being arrested.  All of those guns have been returned to the store.
 
The man is currently being held in the Outagamie County Jail.
