Officers spoke that morning with the store manager who told them that a "thief" entered the store around 7:40 a.m. and began "removing soaps, cosmetics and toilet paper and placing the items into a backpack. The defendant then walked out of the store without paying for the merchandise."
The complaint states that the stolen items were approximately $178 in retail value.
Officers were called to the same Walgreens location just two days later after another complaint of theft, this time with the defendant "removing razors, lotions and other cosmetic items and placing them into two bags," the complaint says. The stolen merchandise this time was valued at $435.
