AIKEN, S.C.---The man wanted for stealing and selling diet pills made at an Aiken plant has surrendered to deputies.

Jeremy Jones turned himself in this morning.

He faces 16 counts of grand larceny.

Deputies say Jones took hundreds of pounds of the diet pills called "alli" from the Glaxo Smith Kline plant in Aiken. He was a temporary worker
there.

Deputies think he sold the pills on the internet auction site eBay.
