So he trying to take me to jail and I didn't take anything. >> Well, they have you on camera. >> I didn't take anything, >> but it says otherwise. >> The 23rd of March 2024, a shopkeeper reported that two women had shoplifted from the store. When police arrived, officers took a statement from the shopkeeper. A second unit located a female matching the description and detained her. The shopkeeper positively identified the female and police arrested her. >> Hello. >> Hi. Who called? >> Uhoh. Trouble. Oh, >> always need. So, what happened? >> Okay, so we had two ladies come in around 6:45, 650ish. One lady had [snorts] um a bun and then bangs [music] and she was in jeans and then like a crop top and like a tan hoodie and she had a purse with her. A big empty purse. >> What color was the purse? >> It was like multiolor. It was mostly white. It was like a Tommy Bahama tropical. >> Yeah. >> The other lady was wearing black biker shorts. She had long braided hair. Um they were both African-American and she had on a brown shirt. Um, she came to the register with a Carter's bag filled and she was like, "Yeah, I just need to do an exchange for my twin boys." Um, I was like, "Yeah, of course." Like I leave your bag there, shop around. The other girl headed straight to like where it says baby girl on the ceiling where we couldn't see her. And it wasn't weird like they were just looking until I seen her look up, stare directly at my associate, and then stare at me and then look back down and then come down. And then she had that girl with the big purse, the big empty purse left. Um, and she was like, "Oh, I forgot my phone in my car. Like, I have to go get it." So, then she left and the other girl was just looking around, talking about, "Oh, I want matching outfits." Like, we were just chatting. Then the other girl came back um and then headed to the back over. [cough] At this point, she grabbed a basket. >> Real quick, real quick. I don't want Do you want to press charges? >> Okay, perfect. [laughter] >> Got you. >> Grabbed a basket, put a bunch of stuff in it. um left it there. Went over to the big kid side back here. Um and Amber grabbed the basket, put it behind the register because she just left it there. >> Okay. >> Um the other lady with the braids was leaning on the register. Um and at some point switched out whatever was in the basket behind the register with this random stuff that they didn't take. >> Gotcha. >> Um and then this girl's over here. I called you guys as she was running the corner and her breasts were suddenly huge because she stuffed all the product down her shirt um and into her purse. And then she comes around the corner and I see the lady with the braids back behind this rounder all of a sudden whip out one of our bags. Open it up. They shove all the stuff in there and then she leaves with that big bag and then the second girl finishes whatever she's doing into her purse and then leaves right after her. >> Okay. >> Around >> about how much did you think they took? probably like $1,000. >> $1,000. >> Wow. >> They took you right. >> I don't even know what they took.
