What would've really pissed off the store was if the guy simply refused to pay the installation cost and argued that he was told it was free. The store cannot call the police out of a debt. That was just bluffing. You cannot be arrested in the United States for failing to pay a debt. At best, you can be sued in civil court. You could call the police if someone takes an item from the store without paying, and call that robbery, but in this case, the guy could've easily produced a receipt of the purchase, so it would've been his word against the store's for the installation fee. (again, requiring a court appearance)
Believe me, I have dealt with fraudulent bills on myself many times. I usually call the source of the debt and argue that I don't owe it, and that if they keep trying to charge me, I won't pay. They usually desist after a couple of months.
