on July 1st 2023 officers from the monoman Falls Police Department responded to Woodman's for a suspect who attempted to steal a bottle of liquor officers contacted the suspect who initially provided a false name okay we'll figure out what's going on no I is he with he with her no y I just was he's with her oh okay what's going on ma'am I don't have anything I I told her she looked in my purse I don't have nothing okay you got an idea with you nothing got an idea with you ma'am you got to stay here until we get this figured out you you're not free to go you got to stay with us okay no I don't have a retail theft in progress we have the suspect you just have a second okay you got you don't have any kind of ID no all right this officer is going to take your name okay excuse thank you can we stop over here this is embarrassing here by your last for me it's a good number for I even I don't have anything in here she said she already got it back from you no she never did take anything from me okay she never she never did I'm not calling you a liar but the store is full of video cameras if it happens she's going to show us okay I know what happened was I had the bottle and I put the bottom at she she approached me never she got it from my purse or nothing like that I sat it down cuz I didn't I said I'm not going to do this and I left I left out I never I never left out with anything okay so did you put the bottle in your bag or were you just carrying it I was carrying it you were carrying it so nothing ever went in your bag I mean I I put it down what do you mean I had it but then I put it down the B B where'd you put it down on the floor like where in the store like by the where the section I put it back okay I put it back so I when I walked out I had nothing okay was that because they had already confronted you or what was the kind of okay kind have you ever been convicted of retail theft before never never arrested okay so um here's how these things usually go uh Brianna yeah could you just start working on video footage for us okay we have a partner who's on the way here um and then he'll stay with you for a couple of minutes while we figure out we'll watch video see what happened uh if nothing happened you're out of here if if a theft did happen and they want to prosecute and you never had a retail theft before it's probably going to be a ticket and then we'll let you go okay so I'm not understanding you had a bottle and put it down and now they're accusing you of stealing I don't understand what I had put it I did put in my purse you put it in your purse okay yeah and then where did they confront you like she she came she came and walked up to me and asked me to I if I could come to the office and speak with her okay were you past the registers already no where were you at I was in the is and I and then when she said that I start walking okay and put it back and you put the bottle back and then came out she didn't have to take it from you no okay not at all okay it's obviously just kind of like a Heat of the Moment thing here for a second where she was saying that she got it back from you I thought it I assume that she took I assume that me she took it back from me no I've had it back down okay all right um I can stay with her if you want you want to just go move our car got some people parked in never before with retail thefts no I put it back okay well I'm not just because she brought it to our attention doesn't mean that they necessarily want to ticket issu I just haven't had the chance to talk to her about it you know what I mean um so we'll we'll get it figured out and then we'll let you know how we're going to go from there okay fair enough I appreciate you being cooperative with us sit down yeah if you want to sit that's no problem is there anything at all in your bag no can I take a look this no this is my personal bag like can I just open it up and look inside yeah okay just make sure you don't have like a weapon or something in there oh no no no no not at all my bag is all torn up it's not no no no this is my bag okay why can't I look inside it's cuz it's personal okay so is there something else in there done anything is there something else in there no okay well if there's nothing in there at all then why can't I look inside of it cuz it's my personal bag and I don't I don't want to okay well until I have a chance to look inside it just don't reach in there okay sure all right I have a weapon I'm sorry I have a weapon okay I see yeah I see you [Music] I'm sorry go to jail sorry I can't hear just a second I go to jail are you going to go to jail um likely not it would be helpful if I could see what was in your bag please don't reach inside if I hav't you're taking it from me I told you not to reach inside I was opening it you said can I can I open it let go the taking my bag let go of the bag why why you because you are not reaching inside bags that I've asked you not to reach inside I didn't reach hey Mike I I didn't reach I didn't even reach you said right then I look in the bag and I started to open it you asked me you asked me I don't know what was so hard about that about that you asked me and I was doing like this where's your PR at she's she was moving our car we had a bunch of people me and I was doing like this and okay you know it you said you're like how can I just look in the back and I was getting ready to open it started reaching inside of it I so we were going to write a handicap ticket but Brianna came out and told us that she' been stealing so I don't know what yet I haven't watched any video if you can stay with when my partner gets with me we'll go watch video figure it out stealing or skip scanning you're studying go on my back for no reason what's that you're studying going to my bag for no reason why you that first of all ma'am we just have to make sure you don't have a gun or a knife that's all after that that's up to the store to tell us what you did all right this is Officer straigh he's going to stay with you until uh until we figure out what the store wants to do here okay that name you gave us is good what's that is that a credit card can I take a look just the name on it get it back oh I did let's go take a look cars over here so I'm going to tell you what happened the there's in the bag yeah what the hell that's fine if you want to tell me that's fine otherwise we'll just stand by until the store tells us what happened why did you can't don't let her have the bag I I don't know I just got here he was already going through your bag I know he just looked at it why can't I have my own bag you'll get a back just I I don't know why did he say that look at it look just leave it before you make him upset again leave it there's the reason why you said that we just don't know you okay goodness gracious you'll get it back we're not keeping it just it's not a big deal just don't touch it for now and you'll get it back I make a phone call I need to make a I'm not I haven't done anything so I'm in a store I'll tell you exactly what happened I'm in a store I had a bottle because I didn't have enough okay I'm lying I put a bottle in my purse I was going to say because I didn't have enough room to hold it so I put it in my purse so I could grab other bottles so I you know to have enough just to have it as a carry in case she came up I was at the counter trying to ring up something else my car didn't go through she comes back over she says I'm going to need to she says I'm going to need to um I need I'm going to need you to come see come see you I need I'm going to need for you to come to my office and talk to me and I said Okay can that's the Lost prevention lady yeah I said okay give me one second and I went and I sat the bottle back where it was okay and so I never left out with so I as I was leaving out the door so was like a booze bottle yeah wine booze and as I was leaving out the door she says don't you B from ever coming in here again don't come to none of her stores and and I was like that's fine but I didn't even take anything I'm leaving just the way I can I don't have nothing I start walking off and as I'm walking off she saw you guys and she's like excuse me officer she was just stealing okay well I had already put it and if that's the case and I believe you they'll most likely just do what she said they'll ban you from the store we just have to identify who you are once we know who you are you'll be on your way but the store it's up to the store to the side you're going to give me a chance just let me go most likely if it's a bottle it's most likely not going to be a ticket unless you've got a lengthy history of doing this everywhere have you ever been arrested before no no if you don't have a criminal history then you shouldn't be looking at too much trouble Jesus what are you goinging right now they're talking to the uh lost prevention lady they're also making sure that you are who you say you are once we confirm all that information they'll come out and tell you what the store wants to happen you see there's nothing in the bag like what do you mean don't give me my bag what the hell what kind of is that there's no more booze in there there's nothing no nothing nothing well another officer asked us to make sure you don't take your bag so just I don't know I don't understand that do you understand that I do not I but again it's just his request what he say that he looked in it so what the hell you do uh the shots or it mixed drinks Margaritas yeah Margaritas yes it's perfect weather for my got to eat this yeah hopefully in a little bit kids and everything did you take your glasses off I've been crying are you really Dorothy yes are you really Dorothy yes how do you spell it e o r o d h y let me see you mean no we're not allowed to show DOD photos to people what nope all right stay here for now we're to go [Music] Bri what's [Music] up have you met Chloe L hell hi nice to meet you hello you got a video for us uhhuh let's take a look okay you can walk behind so what happened um it was just a bottle of that big bottle of cost amigos amigos uh she just put it in her purse and she had a couple other she went to the register and her car was not going and so she was asking people in line okay so she was standing at the register with it in her purse yeah with scan the other items without that bottle uhhuh okay and so uh the car didn't go through so she start asking other people to use their phone and stuff and so she kind of start figuring it out okay and this is in the liquor department uhhuh and so she went to the aisle took took the bottle out and then put it down okay and then I grabbed it I gave it to the cashier of course and then that's when we was exited out and that's when yall was there okay wait sorry we me through that one more time she's she's asking people to use the phone you're watching her she's kind of figuring out what you're up to yeah she see the she see the security uh she goes back in the aisle and then takes the bottle out her purse and it you know put it on the ground and then walks out okay mhm do you guys want a retail theft charge um I just want her to know that she's been um and that I got the proof cuz cuz I guess people have been coming here trespassing and you know they can't get a ticket written up because they not supposed to be here okay so I just want her to know that she's B next time she's here pretty sure she will come back that's what they always do and I want next time she's in trouble I mean retail that's a possibility if you want it's up to you okay let's do that you want to see the video see the video take look okay this is right before that she popped outside there obviously oh no this is when she grabbed a bottle yeah but this is just minutes before you guys all came outside yep I think it's 100 bucks yeah it was huge okay huge well that's the 175 ler I see that was huge I never seen a make that type of size was that tequila yeah I think that's tequila so they wanted to ril theft we have concerns about her identity so we're not going to mess around with potential a sight and release her or anything at this point we have an obstructing but she if if by some chance that's the correct name then I guess we don't have instruction obstructing but um it seems like we have an obstructing okay um so we'll just go 1080 with her and we'll go through her wallet and to arrest okay probably I to he that way if not we'll figure it out at station got it you guys were out here to get a ticket you they were going to write a parking ticket on somebody I don't know who yeah you know they could have just going to let me go cuz I didn't I put it I put it back the St the store asked to get involved so so by me putting it in there but then I put it back and I didn't walk out with it does that make a difference or no concealment is concealment but I I didn't go I didn't leave there's a a section in the law that says just concealing the merchandise alone is against the law I mean based on what you're telling us you did violate the law yeah it seems like the biggest issue right now is just making sure you are who you say you are that's all but that's an issue as well I mean am I going to could that want a ticket if you li to us yes what like call obstruction no no no no I'm talking about the other part the retail fft part the concealment part that's up to the store the store depending sound like she was ready to trespass you and be done with you but got us involved whatever like don't come back in here no more be Bann that's what she said but she still when she saw the officer over there she like flagged them down and
