More details to this question:
My son got pulled over by the store manager and 2 police officers yesterday at a store. They didn’t arrest him, but saying that he is under investigations for double dipping the store, and stated they have him on tape. My question is should I hire an attorney now? Or wait for the police to get back with us. The police told us that he might face a felony charge.

Yes, you should hire an attorney as soon as possible. If police officers are asking questions, it is only to gain enough information to prosecute him. He should make no statements to anyone about the facts surrounding his case without a lawyer present.
