MAYFIELD HEIGHTS, Ohio — Officers responded Aug. 2 to a report of a woman stealing clothing from Carter’s Childrenswear and located her inside of the neighboring Bath and Body Works.
They did not find the stolen clothing in her possession or in the car that was being driven by her niece. The staff, however, had surveillance that video showed her placing clothing into a bag. They said that before she left, she grabbed other clothing items and handed them to an employee and said that she decided not to buy anything. The bag she had used was not located and officers had the niece open the trunk of the vehicle but only she rummaged through its contents.
Due to the theft being captured on video, the Akron woman, 54, was still arrested…
