Joliet police said Sessoms stole three 12-foot lighted Christmas reindeer decorations from the loading dock of Duly Health & Care Field on Nov. 11 and 12. Investigators determined Sessoms scrapped the decorations for money.
In the days after the theft, the baseball team described the suspect as a "Grinch" and said the decorations were stolen ahead of their Glow Holiday Festival.
Sessoms was released on a notice to appear.
