That’s when the cops were called.
The way I read the article, he actually got the charge because he refused to pay for the soda. (He had the chance to fix an honest mistake). Even after that it looks like they just asked him to leave. It wasn't until he refused to leave that the cops were called.

The charge is probably trespassing since he refused to leave...and since it's the third offense it's a felony. He's not going to jail for accidentally using the wrong cup for $1 worth of soda.
