Charges of Shoplifting Against 3 College Students do not Issue After Clerk Magistrate Hearing
In October of 2022 loss prevention at a large suburban outlet complex observed suspicious activity involving three young males. The men were seen going into several stores, one at a time, carrying bags that were seemingly full of merchandise. Each time the men entered a story they left without going through a register. Their bags appeared larger after exiting the stores. Loss prevention officers followed them into one store and saw them putting items in their bags and leaving without paying. The individuals were stopped, questioned and detained once it was learned that they had stolen from several stores in the complex.
