A Fruitland Park woman will appear in court next week for stealing $47 worth of food from Walmart.
A loss prevention associate was alerted to 37-year-old Sierra Baker at a self-checkout register with her daughter in Walmart, located at 2501 Citrus Blvd., around 11 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 22, according to a case report from the Leesburg Police Department.
Baker had been seen skip-scanning consumable goods, and when he checked, she paid for some merchandise but not others placed into shopping bags. She then passed all points of sale and walked toward the north side exit doors, where loss prevention stopped her. They ultimately recovered $47.45 in items, including a pomegranate, a bottle of seasoning, a pack of honey ham deli meat and a pack of strip steak, the report said.
Baker was issued a misdemeanor citation for retail theft and trespassed from the property. She will appear in court on Dec. 10…
