Well, I didn't do nothing wrong. >> What are you doing? >> All right, listen. >> What am I doing wrong? >> Suspicion of retail theft. >> I didn't steal nothing, though. >> They won't let me like slide. >> They're not going to let you slide. >> Why would we slide? >> No. >> One time. >> No. >> Many shoplifterss are smart enough to carry out their dubious activities without getting noticed. But in some cases, things don't go according to plan. And after mapping out a clear exit strategy, they realized that they had been caught in the attic. >> We're here because there is a cell phone that was stolen from Dollar General and it's pinging >> here. >> Here. >> Is it in the yard? Maybe. I don't have it though. >> Cuz what would I do with this cell phone that I can't use? >> I don't have the phone. I don't know how many times I >> just the phone right there. That's the phone. >> Hands behind your back. Put your hands behind your back. Put your hands behind your back. What you going to tell? >> That's fine. That's fine. >> These are times when shoplifterss think they got away, but realize they got caught in the act. The first case reveals a shady thief was tracked down to her apartment after she stole a cell phone at a supermarket. >> Unfortunately, there are going to be charges present. >> Oh, no. I get it. >> Maybe it's $2,000 phone. >> Don't resist. >> I'm not I didn't resist you. >> I came back. Shut up. Okay. >> On the 16th of January 2023, a customer who went shopping at a Dollar General store notified police officers about their stolen phone worth $2,000 that was traced to a nearby residence using a tracking app. Responding to the report, some officers set out to the suspected residence where they questioned the occupants about the stolen item. >> Um, does anybody else live here with you? >> Got a girl downstairs to stand. >> What's that? >> Got a girl downstairs to stand. >> Okay, >> but that's it. What's her name? >> Bailey. >> Can I talk to her real quick? >> Yeah. >> You okay with me stepping in? >> I don't care. >> Oh, I'm sorry. >> I couldn't. It sounded like you asked who it was. I was like, >> "Hey, >> mom's here. >> Mom's here." Uhuh. >> Police officers here >> for what? >> I don't know. >> Huh? Yes, sir. Hey, how you doing? >> Good. How are you? >> Good. My name's Officer Ram. I'm with Mal. Hello. >> Um, we're here because there is a cell phone that was stolen from Dollar General and it's pinging >> here. >> Here. >> Is it in the yard? Maybe. >> Well, it's it's pinging like literally >> like right >> that in between. >> That's That's weird. >> Yeah. Either we we checked over there already and it's pinging right in between both houses. >> So then it's got I can go look in the sidey yards and stuff. Let me go grab a car. >> That's That's what we just did. Oh, well, >> we got we got an officer checking camera footage right now, but we're trying to get back while we're here. >> It was at Dollar General on >> over on the admill. >> Oh, like I No one stole a phone. I mean, there was one at the parking lot and I took it to the lady with glasses in the brown hair. >> Do you have a phone? >> Cuz she was out there smoking. >> Do you still have a phone? >> Do I have a phone? >> You have Do you have the phone? >> No, I don't have the phone. >> Where? But it was a like a flip phone. >> Like one of the newer ones or >> No, like a >> older flip phone. >> Like a flip phone. >> When was that? >> Uh 3 and a half maybe 4 hours ago. My mom, she's about to be here, too. So, she's just walking down here, so she might have it. >> Your mom might have it? >> Yeah, she might. >> Was she with you? >> No, she's walking down the alley right now. >> Was she with you at Dollar General? Yep. Okay. >> Can you call her and see where she's at? >> Yeah. Give me Let me grab my phone. >> 23 from 6. I'm out with a female now that lives in that older gentleman's house in the basement. She's saying her and her mom were at Dollar General about 3 hours ago. Don't really have any more information than that yet. I'll let you know. >> The woman identified as Bailey began to act fidgety from the jump when the cops explained the reason for their visit and asked about the stolen phone that was traced to the apartment. She quickly used a tactic to create a distraction and assume the role of innocence in the situation. >> Can you come or can I come down there and talk to you? >> Well, no. I'm going to come up here. >> Okay, that works. >> What's up? >> There. Was that your phone that just rang? >> Yeah, that was mine. >> Okay. >> I got I got to prove everything. >> I got the cash thing. >> Okay. Listen. >> Yeah. >> All I I want this is the phone, >> right? No, I know that >> if you or your mom took the phone. >> I have no idea. I can go look in her car when she gets here. >> She was just right next door, too. So, it could possibly be in her car or she has I don't have it, though. >> Cuz what would I do with this cell phone that I can't use? >> Well, I'm not accusing you of taking it. I just We have to do our due diligence. >> Oh, no. I get that, too. But I'm not being accused of stealing something that I didn't steal. >> No, that's why I'm not accusing you. But we we still have to come in and it's just Listen, you said that you were at Dollar General. >> Yes, I was. I mean, but I've been at three different Dollar Generals in there >> and I understand that's and that's fine. But you being there >> does not mean that you were necessarily the one that took the phone. But >> it's coincidental. >> No, I mean it's not. >> Do you think that your mom took it? >> I don't think she took it. Or she could have. She could have picked it up. >> Does she have a phone? She has like three phones. I know I do. Mom, >> that's another officer. >> Oh, I thought that was my mother. >> All right. But no, she's just at Yankee Doodle. She said she should be here right now. >> Where is she at? Is >> that Yankee Doodle? >> Is she still walking here? >> Yeah, but it should have been by now since she's right there. She's slow. >> You check the front two and a half. >> I haven't checked. Well, yeah. Did Ryan Was Ryan up there? >> Where? >> Oh, did he knock at the front? >> The front? Which one? This one or that one? This door. >> This door? Yeah, we checked. It was just up there. >> Where's the paint? Right in the middle of the house. >> It's painting like directly to the side of your guys' house. >> We could have fixed that. >> So, we just we just got to know cuz we're we're checking. That's fine. >> We're checking footage right now to see. No, I did get a phone from there and I turned it. The lady that was outside smoking. >> You turned it into a lady outside smoking. She was She was working. >> What kind of phone? >> No, she worked there. >> What kind of phone was it? >> Older style phone. >> An older style phone. >> An older style one? >> Yeah. >> With a touchcreen? >> I don't think so. I don't really look at it. I just gave it to her. >> Okay. But it it was a flip phone like >> No, I mean that that's that's matching. >> That's what it means. Oh, well, brown hair and she had glasses and she worked the front desk >> and I I get that. The only issue we're having is it it came back here. >> I get that, but I don't have it. >> So, right now, I mean, before looking at char before looking to charge or anything, I think they phone back and >> Oh, I know. >> If you're seen grabbing the phone last and never giving it to a lady outside, then >> Oh, that's fine. Unfortunately, there are going to be charges present. >> Oh, no. No. I get it. >> Maybe it's $2,000 phone. >> Some moments later, Bayileleyy's mother arrived at the apartment to talk with the officers. And not long afterward, a shocking revelation was made. The discovery provided an idea about who the real culprit was, prompting the officers to take immediate action. >> Had a long walk. >> Did you have any chance? I didn't make it out. >> Did your mom get out of the car there or No. >> No, >> she didn't. Jeez. >> Hey, dear. Can you come here real quick? >> No, you can come here. >> I don't want you to take the phone. >> I know. Just listen. >> I am listening. >> Okay. Hear me out here. >> Okay. Pretty easy going officer. >> Oh, no. I get that. >> I'm not going to watch video surveillance tomorrow cuz they're closed. >> Gotcha. >> All the lady wants >> her phone. I get this. >> If we don't get the phone back and I video surveillance and then it's you or your mom stealing it, then you guys >> I got you. >> So, if you or your mom had the phone, just give it back to me. >> I don't have the phone. I don't know how many times I just got the phone right there. That's the phone. That's neighbors. >> What? >> So that's Flavors. >> Your mom just walked up. [Applause] >> Bailey, can you come back here? >> Mom. Mom. >> I don't I don't know where she's at. >> Pedro. Hi, Julie. How are you? >> Do you remember me? >> Murphy. >> No, not Murphy. It's close. Close. >> Listen, Julie. I didn't get up. Listen. >> Okay. >> We know that at least you guys were at Dollar General. This is not coincidental that the phone is pinging here. >> Yeah. >> Okay. So, you came to the front. You're at yank noodle. So you could have came to this back alley which is >> No, I went I'm down to the spot across the gas station. >> That's what you called where you at to go to the gas station. >> I think it's deep. >> Hang on. >> Just slow down. >> Okay. Did she give you a phone? >> Uhuh. >> No. >> No. I said no. >> I didn't get out the car. >> I didn't get out the car. >> Where'd she go? Things suddenly took on a different dimension when Bailey disappeared from the apartment while the officers questioned her mother about the stolen phone. >> Where did she call her? >> Is she down there? >> She was up here talking and then she was talking to us. >> We found the phone on the front porch. >> It was on the front porch. >> Yeah. >> Can you try to call her and see where she's at? Cuz we need to talk to her. Why kids? >> Where's the phone at? >> Okay. >> I mean, this stupid heavy. >> Come here. Come here. Come here. Put your hands behind your back.

I No, I walked right back door to be on the >> You're under arrest. >> I really I'm about to Can I key myself or Can you guys please take me pee? >> Nope. >> Please. >> Nope. >> No, I ain't going. Give me the phone. >> It's my phone. I didn't do I'm going to put you on the ground. Please be help. >> Mom, please don't. Please don't. Please don't. Put your hands back. Please. My broken. behind your back. I'm going to >> you get the hands behind your back. >> I will get off the hands behind your back. >> Get me off the floor. I will. >> Bailey, stop. Stop getting off this pole. I will get off this pole. I can't open your cake, Bailey. >> Oh my god. You got >> What hurts? >> My [ __ ] chest. >> Huh? >> You smacked that face on there. You smashed my face on that. >> I'm here. Mom, I'm here. >> Mom. My legs. Oh gosh, I have to explain my >> As Bailey wailed about her detention, one thing was clear to the officers. Now, this was just crocodile tears and a sign of frustration because her plans to push the blame on her mother and get away with her crime backfired in the most humiliating way possible. >> All right, let me see your cuff. >> Hold on. Please, >> don't slip out of him again. >> I want to talk. >> No, I don't trust you no more. >> You hurt my wrist. Mom, I can't feel my hus. Mom, I think he's broken. >> Mom, I think that one hurts. >> I'm going to double. >> Oh my god, it hurts. >> Okay, I'm sorry. I can't. Oh my god, it hurts. Oh, hurts. >> Don't resist next time. >> I'm not I didn't resist you, but resisted. >> I came back. I told you. Give me my shut up. >> Okay. All right.

Can you just hang out over there, please? Thank you. >> Hey, my eye, please. >> Do I really? >> Are you hurt? He snapped my face on that and my stomach and my I swear I put it on my wrist sitting. >> All right. [Music] >> Are you most comfortable laying down or do you want to stand up or >> No, you're right here. >> You just want to stay where you're at? >> Yeah. She was afterward charged with theft and resisting arrest. Bailey's dumb attempt to be sleek was similar to the case of this criminal who tried fleeing from the cops after he was caught shoplifting. >> You mother give me a way to make nothing to make any kind of legal money. You piece of touch me. >> Not let me make money a legal way. So I got a deal. On the 30th of August 2022, the loss prevention unit at a local store alerted police officers about a theft incident involving a male subject. The caller gave officers a description of the suspect who allegedly managed to sneak out of the store with two stolen drills. Upon receiving this information, an officer spotted and intercepted a man on the streets who matched the description of the criminal. >> Hey, stop. Police. Stop. You're going to get tag. Hey, stop. You're going to get ted. Get on the ground. >> Get on the ground. You just took that stuff from Lowe's. Get on the ground. Get on the ground. >> Get on the ground. Lay on the ground. >> Oh my god. >> Hands behind your back. Oh my go give me a way to make nothing to make any kind of legal money. You piece of [ __ ] you. >> I ain't giving you. >> Okay, so let me tell you how this works. You don't give your name, you go to jail for free. You sit there. >> I don't give two. >> Then we'll put you in as John Doe and you'll sit there until you do give your name. >> I don't I'll sit there 12 out your name. You'll get an instruction. >> I don't give a I'll sit there till I >> Hey, what's his name? >> Uh here looking for it, too. They've been damn boosting all his name. Um, I'll end with >> M. >> I think I know where you godamn. >> Hey, he's got a wallet, so 225. >> Central, we got a unit out with this. This guy godamn. >> Yeah, you do. Damn. Stop. >> Stop. >> Stop trying to kick me. >> I don't give a spill on you pigs. >> Dakota. Enough. >> No. >> No. Not letting me make money a legal way. So, I got a steal. >> Enough. I've always been cordial with you. Be cordial with us, please. Dakota. After getting caught red-handed with the stolen items, the man began to rage out, bringing up ridiculous excuses as a reason for his criminal actions. But his rage during the arrest was only a fragment of what he displayed later on. >> I willing. >> No, sir. >> I'm not getting the back of his car, bro. We don't >> I'm not getting the back of his car. Not willing. >> Why would you do that? More trouble for you. >> I touch with Dakota Richardson. He should have some history. fiber everything in this goddamn planet. >> You want me to go get your brother Dakota? >> No. Him, dude. >> Give me the heat. >> I am sick. Okay. ain't got the air on you. >> Good. All right, Dakota, we're going to put you in the car nicely. Okay, >> stop resisting. No [Music] compression charges. No compression charges. All right, let's get him out of here. >> Hey, I'll see how much it is and I'll get you AVR. >> Just take him over to jail so we get them out and then we'll they'll send you the >> I'm taking you straight out, Dakota.

Do not kick my window. >> Okay. Take them on. During the ride to jail, Dakota continued to blab about the incident, refusing to take accountability for the crime. He however knew that his plans to get away with theft had been uncovered and nothing could exempt him from punishment. >> Don't let anybody get noing job legally. You piece of right now, you piece of >> Stop. >> No. You put me in that jail. Every single one of you money because of y'all can't do a thing. I lost everything.

If you put me in a room and let me put there I swear to God the first human being I come into contact with my god neck >> at the station. Dakota's aggression went all the way up, which only ended up adding more charges to his already messed up situation. Even though the officers were notified about his wild behavior before he arrived in jail, they were nowhere prepared for the kind of wildness he would display. >> Hold on. >> I got this. I got this. One more time. We >> got a spit mask. Yeah, spit mask is on. >> All right, spit mask is on. >> Grab the leg. >> Shift this way. >> Shift this way. >> Yeah, we got him over here.

Right there. >> He's not searching. >> You're a piece of >> We got a search. >> All right. searching. >> I have me you doing >> He was charged with theft and obstruction just when you think shoplifterss couldn't get any more shameless. This man Anthony sets the bar lower after getting caught while trying to make a run for it. >> Put your hands out the window. Let me see your hands. >> Why did you take the crosses? because you had like a whole plan in mind. It seemed you were real slick with it. You see how your story is not adding up, right? >> The crosses were laying on the on the just on the ground. >> On February the 28th, 2024, a male suspect was reported to have walked into a Walmart store and stolen several gold jewelry from the glass display case. When Lost Prevention discovered this, they quickly apprehended the man as he tried to leave the store. But before they could detain him, he fled the scene. Officers were notified of the incident afterward and provided with a description of the vehicle that the suspect had fled in. Once police officers tracked the vehicle to a highway, a traffic stop was conducted and the driver, Anthony, was immediately detained. >> Put the car in park. >> Put your hands out the window. Let me see your hands. Let me see your hands. Last thing you light the damn cigarette. >> Well, I didn't do nothing wrong. >> What are you doing? >> Stop listening. >> What am I doing wrong? >> Listen. Start listening. >> Relax your hands. >> Oh, no. >> You're being detained right now. Suspicion of retail theft. >> I didn't steal nothing, though. >> Just cooperate. >> You are being detained. Not arrested. Detained. Listen to what we have to say. Drop the cigarette. You're not going to be able to smoke it anyways. >> You're detained, man. >> What's your name? >> Anthony. >> Jesus Christ. >> Well, I understand. Anthony, you got any weapons on you? >> No. >> Anything behind you? >> Yeah. Anything sharp on you that's going to stick, stag, or snap or poke us? No. >> Any heels on you? >> Matthew, if you want to go run that LP, see what we got? >> Somebody's already >> Oh, somebody already got there. Okay. Who's take like who's getting stuck with it? Is it one of your crime prevention guys or one of us? >> I haven't seen the uh that look like >> Is this vehicle registered to you? Yeah, just remember. >> Whose car is behind me? Is that you? >> Uh me. I'm the second one. >> I'm going to put actually your car. >> You got shorts under this. >> There's a reason why we're here. You said it's Anthony. >> Yeah. There's a reason why we're here. Lift up your hands. That's perfect for now. >> You're just being detained for the moment. >> Detained for what though? >> We just told you, man. Do you listen? You have trouble listening though? >> For suspicion of retail theft, which is shoplifting. That's what you're being detained for. >> Okay. Well, there's a reason why we're here. We don't just stop random people and put them in handcuffs and tell them they're under suspicion of retail. >> So, have a seat. >> I pulled the phone from them, but we'll look in the car. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. >> I can't even get my foot in here. >> You can use the whole thing, man. You can sit the other way if you want. >> Smoke my cigarette. >> No, Anthony. After placing the suspect inside the cop car, officers proceeded to search his vehicle for the stolen jewelry pieces and made a surprising discovery. So cross there and you look in the door, there's some crosses, too. And there's one with like a kind of like a safety tag on it. Look, >> see the safety white safety tag. >> Okay. >> Yeah, there's gold to see if there's gold crosses or whatever. And we get you some pictures of them. All those small ones there. Just the crosses. Was there necklace parts or just this? >> No, that's what all saw. There's one right here, too. >> Okay. I was like, "Oh, great. Right back. You got ripped up. >> It's so long. >> So he was Anthony Powell. >> His dad. >> Oh yeah. >> His sister's like single 18 all the time. Dad's semi-ooperative. >> Yeah. Oh yeah, >> he he you were on that call when he threw the bench at me and he barricaded himself in the bathroom. >> Yeah. So we almost had a SWAT call a week later with a >> Yeah, same thing. >> Me and out there. >> Apparently Anthony was already on probation for a recent incident that involved one of the officers present. When Anthony realized that the stolen pieces had been recovered and his messy probation record would lead to even worse punishment, he suddenly got a not so bright idea to make a ridiculous suggestion to the officers. hitting his head. >> He's hitting his head. >> Is he hitting his head? >> Hey, will you guys at least let me stay inside? >> Well, you guys got to at least let me smoke a cigarette before I go. >> If you keep acting the way you're going to act, we're not going to allow you to do that. Okay. >> Thirsty as >> understand how you treat us is how we treat you. >> I'm getting arrested for this >> right now. You're here in custody for retail theft. I'm going to jail for it. >> We're going to take you back to Walmart and we can talk further about it there. Okay. >> All right. Thank you, sir. >> I'm Officer Matthews with Penel Park Police Department. We've met briefly before. >> All right. >> All right. So, before we start, I'm going to read you. >> You've been read them? >> Yeah. I'm not. >> Do you think they'll that I can talk to? >> That's not That's not happening. Can you ask them if they'll like cuz I'm on probation or like even if I pay the 400? >> I do. This is not That's not how they work. >> That's how I have to go with your work. >> Yes. You committed a crime. That's That's how the game work. >> They got their stuff back. >> Got their stuff back because >> because of us. They're not You left the property in your vehicle. >> Can you ask them if they No, they've already >> Did you guys let me slide? >> They've They've already gone down this path. >> Go down. I don't I'm probably >> then you shouldn't have stole. That's It's as simple as that, man. I'm sorry, but this is You chose to do this. >> I don't want to. >> Then you shouldn't have stole. I mean, I don't know what to tell you, man. >> Yeah, they won't let me like slide. >> They're not going to let you guys slide. >> Why would we let you slide? >> No. >> One time. >> No. >> No, we're not doing >> Well, we brought this stuff back. >> You let me smoke this area. >> We'll see. >> I think that's why he rolled out the window. No, he rolled down the window so I could talk to you. >> What happened? What happened? >> Okay. [Music] >> Hey, has he been read yet? >> No. Didn't you just rip? >> Well, he said he's been ready yet. >> Oh, no. No. >> I have not read him anything. >> We're not No, nowhere near there yet. Okay. >> We have a lot of things to do on our end. A cigarette is a favor from us to you. Okay. He has it, but I can just >> All right, he's talking. Listen. >> Okay, you understand? He has things he has to investigate and ask you. Okay, we have things we need to do inside to get the property back. And then by all means, if we're done after that and you're cooperative and you can smoke a cigarette while you're handcuffed. >> I got leg. I need to stretch my leg. >> You don't. You're in custody. You don't have a right standing to do anything right now. >> Okay. >> I'm going to read you these. >> I'm going to leave it unlocked for you. >> Yeah, I appreciate it. >> All right. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can will be used against you in a court of law. Failing to see how serious the situation was, Anthony continued to pester the officers by making silly demands. His incessant lies and lack of accountability for the crime began to get the officers angered and irritated. >> In these rights in mind, you wish to talk to us now. >> No. >> You don't want to talk to? >> Yeah, I do. >> You want to talk to me? What? Why? Why did you take the crosses? >> Why did you take >> No, you do know. >> You do know. You made a choice. >> You think that that they'll let me go there? >> No, they won't. is on it's on you guys. Well, we brought the stuff back, though. >> No, that's They've decided they want to press charges on. >> Can you Can I talk to them? >> No, we're not having you try and coers people into dropping charges. That's not how this is going to work. I >> I don't want to go to jail. >> Then you should have taken the process. >> And how long have you sit in jail for? >> Until the judge decides to see you and he decides to >> I can't do that. I have work tomorrow. I'm going to lose my job. I'm going to lose everything. >> Okay. You're telling me like I'm the one that took the crosses. I didn't take the back. >> That doesn't matter. They weren't going to. So, if we hadn't stopped you >> and you know, six weeks later, >> Uhhuh. >> we stopped you. You still got the crosses. They get the property back, but you don't want to go to jail. Even though you you took some. >> Yeah, but you guys hel them up on the >> No, we can't. This You think it's our decision whether or not they prosecute? They've made that decision. It's our job to facilitate. Why did you take the crossings? Because you had like a whole plan in mind, it seems. But you were real slick with it and we would drop them in your pocket. >> They were laying on the on the on the floor. >> They were laying on the floor and you just picked them up. >> Yeah. >> So you just picked them up right off the ground. >> Yeah. >> So if we have camera footage of what you did, it's going to show us you picking them up off the ground. >> Yes.

So, how is that my fault? >> So, you found items that are jewelry at a at a big commercial store. >> Uhhuh. >> Put them in your pocket and you decide, you know what? I'm going to walk out with these. And you want me to believe that, correct? >> Well, they're the God's honest truth. >> Yes. >> All these boxes were laying on the ground. You take them out of the boxes, put them in your pocket. >> I didn't put no boxes in my boxes. >> No, I said you took them out of the boxes and put them in your pocket. >> No, they were they were already They were on the ground. >> They were on the ground out of the boxes. >> Yes. >> Like, you're sure? 100%.

All those things you asked of us. >> Uh-huh. The cigarette. >> Why would I give you a cigarette if you're going to lie to me? >> Would I give you a cigarette? >> They're laying though. The boxes were laying underneath. >> So, now the boxes were laying on the ground. >> Yeah, they were just laying on the ground though. >> Well, you said they weren't in the boxes. So, you see how your story is not adding up, right? The crosses were laying on the on the just on the ground. >> What I can tell you now, >> their cameras are so good. They can read the time on your watch when they zoom in and they can read a text message from your phone. So you giving this officer complete bull when we already know the answers to the questions we're asking you >> doesn't benefit you isn't going to make us do you a favor and let you smoke a cigarette. >> So I I smoke a cigarette. >> No, I'm just saying those weren't >> they weren't you reached inside a closed case which is defeating a security device which is another charger. >> Yeah. Yeah. That one I told her about >> all four. >> No, all four. >> All right. I think we're done. >> No. Hey, listen. There's cameras. Like I said, there's a place with the most phenomenal cameras. >> Half cigarette all day. >> You just That's all again. You're just spewing lies. When we arrested you and detained you, you had a cigarette. You were smoking. >> You just lit it when you came. >> Sir, >> that was half smoked. That's not true. >> Anthony, you're spitting nothing but bull, bro. >> Did they come back in? >> You're spitting nothing but bull. Yeah, I already started running him. Um, there's no way he doesn't have a prior conviction for this. >> That's what I said, too. Look at his uh >> What the [ __ ] >> Can I please have a cigarette? >> No, Anthony. >> I will be arrested for Please. I didn't lie to you. >> I didn't lie to you. Can I please? >> I've never met someone that's act such like a child at your age. >> You say Anthony, stop. >> Stop. >> No. No. We're done. Stop. Anony's bad reputation with criminal activities tainted his image in the eyes of the officers. And even when he appeared to be cooperative, it was difficult to tell if he was concealing something underneath. >> Hey, um, when I go to jail, how long do you think I'll sit there? I have to wait till the court. Usually till 7. >> You got to see a judge cuz you're on probation. You have a bomb. >> Probably tomorrow. Are you working for your dad now or what? >> Yeah, I'm working for my dad. I work tomorrow. >> You want me to call him? Let him know you're not going to make it. Okay. I got a phone number for him already. >> Is it? That's a window. Are >> you here for it? Oh, >> you got nothing tucked away. You know, obviously you've been in jail plenty of times. They find something while you're up there, Anthony. Little baggy. Anything like that, it's a felony. >> Yeah. >> So, do you have anything on you that we didn't find? >> Uh, think long and hard cuz it's going to benefit you now to tell us. >> Oh, no. Can you try that small pocket? >> Do you have anything in your box? Do you have anything in your boxers, Anthony? Did you stuff the stuff in your pants to begin with? That's why I'm asking. Stop moving hands. Just relax. Okay. Take a couple drags of that and it's gone. And you're going back in the car. You still using >> here and there? You get by or what? [Music] >> Okay. You got small baggie tucked away on you that you're going to use later on? >> No. You got no rigs in the car or anything like that either, though. >> Step on it. >> Hey, can you give me a call? We're going to take your shoes off and your socks off. >> All right. >> Okay. >> Are we going to find something? >> Are we going to find something in a little pocket? >> I don't think so. So, >> you got nothing on you? Nothing in your car. When did you get your license straight? >> Um uh that's been straight for a while. >> Not for that long. >> Yeah. All right. Face the vehicle. >> On your stance real wide. Why is those cancer? >> Step out of it. Step back. >> The man was later charged with petty theft. Anthony clearly lacked regret for his actions. Like these beauty queens who thought they had gotten away with stolen beauty products. That was until the cops came chasing them down. >> Probably looking at 2,000 or more. And this one, I'm pretty sure she changed her hair, but she was here 4 days ago. >> The receipt from Target. I'm not lial. None of that. We don't steal. Did you guys do anything recently at the mall? >> Take any take any merchandise? >> We don't go to the mall. >> Got you all on video and everything. >> On May the 30th, 2024, the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office received a call from an Ulta Beauty store regarding a theft incident involving three female suspects. When the officers arrived at the store, they spoke with several witnesses who narrated what they saw as the incident unfolded. >> Um, I couldn't recall much. Um, I know two walked out together. They ran in that direction and then that's all you saw. What did What did they in her hands? >> There was a third girl that came out after the first two. They each had a basket full of stuff. >> Okay. And what did the third girl do? >> Um she was kind of just walking. The other two ran and then she picked it up once we hit the parking lot. >> Okay. They picked her up then in the car. Yeah. Back there. Back there. >> Give them the flag. It might have been messed up. >> Um, let me know. If not, whatever you want. >> Did you see them take it? >> There were three. So, I saw the three of them enter the store. I was trying to find parking. I backed in. The three of them ran out with basket. All three of them. >> Yeah. But by the time they We'll see if they want a report now or they're going to probably give us a report later on. After collecting witness statements, officers went into the store to speak with the manager and get an estimate of the goods that were stolen. Inside, they were presented with CCTV footage that provided insights on how the suspects carried out their dubious activities. >> Well, I told him, "We have to make a report to give you guys." So, I told him right away cuz usually I make the report so when you come, it's ready for you guys. So, I literally He said he was going to tell you guys to hold off until the report was here. Well, kind of doesn't work like that. >> Okay. >> If it's an in progress call >> and we're coming to it, we're coming to it. I mean, we can't just, you know, >> Oh, that's fine. >> You know what I mean? And then just, you know, turn around and >> go away cuz what happens if we would have caught them out in the parking lot or out on the roadway or they got pulled over, you know, in the ne next district because they had >> three different districts on this call. So, um yeah, we're here now. So, >> I can show you the video. We can look at it together. Yeah, >> I think one of them actually was here like literally 4 days ago. >> Yeah. >> We've uh we've been working on a couple pages. So, >> the mess we're doing shipment. >> Yeah, no worries. >> So, you have the video with what we had today cuz that's probably somebody else for the other cases. >> Mhm. >> Um, so I have the other case. He didn't send the evidence locker for that one, but I am familiar with it so I could drop all the videos in there for you. Cool. We'll give you uh we'll give you a >> and I'll also drop like the itemized report with all the pricing what they took. It's just I have to go on the camera and look for one by one and actually we'll count out there. So I'll put like those reports in it as well for you guys and photos and the times and I'll just pull it up now so you can see. >> So it was three females. >> Three females this time. >> Okay. >> Um Africanamean one's on the heavier set side. Had like red hair. 205 you said? >> Yeah, 205. She's walking in right now. This a better view from their garage. >> The view that they walked in. That's one of them. >> Mhm. So, what did I get? I'm sorry. The one right there with a basket. And then the other two about to walk out right now. This one has a basket. Two. And then there's one more. >> Wow. That's amazing. They just the baskets are knocked right out, huh? >> They know. Yeah. >> And three. She's just chopping her whole whole thing. So, >> we're probably looking at 2,000 or more. And this one, I'm pretty sure she changed her hair, but she was here 4 days ago. >> I got the license, but or somewhat of a license from some members. >> Oh, someone gave it to you. >> What is the color?

It was shipment day today. [Music] >> For the for the record, cuz I'm recording. >> Oh, yeah. Sorry. 2,000. 2,000. >> Over 2,000. >> They went around the whole store and just started grabbing stuff. >> They went to One Feetction Fragrance, so they already knew what they were coming for. And then one went to hair tools and got a hair tool. >> So they they sold a haird dryer too. >> Yeah. She said, "Let me make a pit stop." So they went they even lift the little So we have these little veneers. They lift them. >> This is the fragrant fragrance. >> So they look the empty. They all have fragrance. They took all the edit. They cleaned it up and today's shipment. So it's filled. We filled it this morning. Days later, the same car, which was linked to the theft incident, was located and intercepted. The woman in the vehicle was immediately recognized as one of the criminals from the store, and things were about to go all the way left for them. Put all the windows down, please. Hello.

I want to go bar like I did with a Popeye's. >> Ladies, Brianna Tombs and Natalyia Rock were charged with felony grand theft. While these ladies had a nonchalant attitude toward their crime, the woman in the next case tried using emotions to gain sympathy after getting apprehended for theft. >> Cler, you stopped >> target. >> You stopped the target. >> Oh, nobody said you took anything. >> It looks like you are. I'm >> having a rough time right now, honestly. like I'm going through the voice of the >> Yeah. >> And I'm sorry. >> On the 10th of January 2023, police officers managed to track down a car that was linked to a reported theft at a local Target. When the cops approached the driver, they were met with a sweet and innocent looking woman who you'd never believe had a bone in her body for theft. >> Hello. How are you? I will stop you because this vehicle uh was possibly involved in a shoplifting from Target. So they provided the description very well of the vehicle and uh description of you know you so uh do you have your driver's license with you? >> Yeah, I don't you know All right. Thanks. Yeah. So, I mean, you essentially know what I know right now. I mean, there's a deputy there that has confirmed it. Um, and they're trying to get all the details hatched out, but um, they provided a very clear description of a vehicle which matches this description and almost an identical tag number. So, um, you know, just uh, hang out. Okay. You don't have any weapons in the vehicle or anything? Okay. All right. I'll be right back. Look for Legos. I don't hang out with Legos. I'm going to hang out on the Saturn. So, where are you heading today? >> Where? >> Interlock. >> Interlocking. Okay. What brings you in Palm Coast? >> Just driving through from Edgewater. >> Just driving through from Edgewater. Okay. What takes you out to uh Interlockan? I'm just saying there I'm like going through divorce. >> You're going through divorce >> and my mother has a lighthouse. >> You have the witness respond. >> So um so do you live in Edgewater? >> Kind of. Yeah. I have a storage in Edgewater. >> You have a storage unit out there? >> Yeah. Like I'm kind of taking all my stuff from um to the lake house right now cuz it's too much for me. >> Okay. Uh just north of West 100 on uh US1. >> Yeah. >> All right. Just hang tight for a couple minutes. We're just kind of trying to figure out what's I just rolled up. So I don't you know I'm just here standing by for safety. I don't really know a whole lot what's going on. So >> you don't know what happened. >> Yeah. >> Did you make any stops when you got off the highway? >> Um yeah. >> Where'd you stop? >> Target. You stopped at Target. Oh, nobody said you took anything. Oh, so what'd you get at Target? >> Nothing. I didn't get anything. >> You didn't buy anything? No. Okay. Um, she's got a bunch of Legos in the back of this truck. So, it's uh possible that uh we could have more than one shoplifter uh incident from another location. How come you stopped at Target? >> Just to shop because I like I buy and sell Legos. So, >> you buy and sell Legos? So, you were shopping, but you didn't get anything? >> I didn't end up getting anything. >> You didn't get anything? No. Okay. So, they just didn't have what you were looking for. >> Yeah. >> While they waited for additional information before taking any action, an officer continued to engage the woman in conversation to discover if there was something hidden behind her innocence and tried to uncover unknown details about this alleged theft. >> How do you go about buy, sell, trading Legos? Um, Yeah, just like word of mouth. Word of mouth. >> Word of mouth. Okay. You nervous? You seem like you're shaking a little bit. Yeah. you know, >> well, they got the property. >> Yeah. At I mean, she passed all lines of sale outside. They recovered it outside the store. You know, she's got a bunch of Lego boxes uh like sellers Legos and all that. I mean, I can see in the back possible that uh according to the store, they're saying that um she's been hitting other stores in the state. >> I'm going to grab some water. Okay. >> Okay. Any weapons in the car? >> No. Did you just get that? >> No. >> No. >> To what? >> Since yesterday. >> You had it since yesterday. >> I know. That's the Target brand. Good and gather. >> That's where I do all my shopping, too. I like that product there. It's good. Things progressed quickly after officers got a hold of evidence that proved the woman was guilty of the crime she was being accused of. The moment she understood that she had been caught and there was no other way to fight this, she decided to play the sympathy card to make the cops feel sorry for her. I'm going to have her step up cuz be driving away. All right, mama. I'm just going to have you step out of the car for me. Okay. You could just leave that right on the center console for now. And you could put your phone down just so you don't drop it or anything. You could just leave it on the seat. Okay. You just hang tight right against the car here. Right here. >> Excuse me. >> You could just lean right against the car. >> Is the key still in the ignition? >> Yeah. >> Is the car on? >> I think so. Okay. Do you mind if I go turn it off real quick and leave the key on the dash? We just don't want it running off on us. >> All right. >> All right. >> Yeah. We're just waiting for Rex to show up. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Oh, he's just waiting on one of our other partners. All right. Just real quick, just because there's a lot of cops here, you know, you're on the car. We're standing by. I'm just going to read you your rights real quick. Okay. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say may be used as evidence against Leo. You have the right to talk to an attorney and have him and her with you now or at any time during questioning. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed to represent you. If at any time you wish to stop talking, have an attorney present. All question will be stopped at your request. You understand these rights? All right. So, >> so you all right? Cuz before I was asking you if you had any kind of problem. >> Yeah, just check it. >> Do you mind if I partner looks? >> No. >> No. >> All right. So, real quick before I go search the vehicle or anything, would you mind just going to the back of his vehicle so that way we're not as close to traffic and so you are aware that thing is sharp. So, I don't want you getting hurt. Hey, be careful for ants. >> It looks like you are. We're going to do a show up and uh the deputy's going to bring by the witness that we have and they're going to say whether or not that the what whatever they observed was uh you or not. >> I didn't take anything from that. >> Well, I mean uh according to them passed all lines of sale, got out of the store >> and they recovered the property outside this outside the uh doors. >> That was not outside the doors. You can see >> Okay.
