A deputy responded to Walmart, located at 550 U.S. Hwy. 27, Clermont, regarding retail theft at 7 p.m. Thursday, according to an arrest report from the Lake County Sheriff’s Office.

Asset protection stopped her as she left through the general merchandise doors, and she returned all eight stolen items valued at $35.84, the report said…
