I came from a situation at my boyfriend's house. I tried to go to my mom's house. She ended up having everyone come to my room and steal from me. So, I headed down to Chicago with an old friend. Me and them ended up getting into a fight. So, now I'm here. I'm trying to make ends meet. >> Officers note most items stolen were food, drinks, and supplies consistent with someone living on the streets. Though, the receipt also shows electronics and apparel. >> It's a photocopy ID. I wish I wish I had more to my name to have my wallet be valuable, honestly. >> Okay, so it's a female um down on her luck, had a bunch of stuff stolen from her, fighting whatever with boyfriend.

I'll explain it. >> Grace becomes agitated, arguing that without the supplies, she would be vulnerable and possibly end up dead on the streets.

You don't even recognize my face because of how up I am. Cuz that's what happens to young girls. >> Officers try to cuff her and confirm her ID. Grace protests saying she wants a female deputy to pat her down. Accuses officers of invading her privacy and repeatedly refuses to cooperate. >> Okay, we're not going to put him on that tight. Trust me. Okay, I'm going to put him on your left cuz you're right-handed. >> I'm going to go back to the car, wait for the positive ID based on the picture. Um, >> hurt. >> And then as long as everything's still the same, kosher, same route. Okay. All right, I'll be back. >> But do you understand that I'm kind of in the corner and you're kind of standing above me? So this it's a little bit of an intimidating situation. So if you could please step step back a little bit, that would make me uncomfortable between us. >> Well, actually co distance is six. >> Okay.

Okay. >> I I just I don't necessarily feel comfortable with a grown man's hands on top of me. >> Well, there's a lot of other people present. Obviously, I'm not going to do anything. It would just make me feel more comfortable if you got a female deputy on scene. >> All right. Well, >> a struggle breaks out when officers attempt to move her.

So, if I go look at the video footage, it's not going to show that. >> Okay. So, what were you guys doing in the store then? >> Um, well, I have a baby shower at right now. So, we're just going to look for more diapers and other stuff that I could possibly gift to. >> Okay. And um what happened with Walmart where they're pretty much stopped you guys from taking whatever you guys had? >> Um they didn't take anything. We were uh going to scan and I guess I don't know what happened or something about pants. So, the lady had said that we had only uh t-shirt scan that we didn't scan the pants. So, she was like, "All right, well, what about pants?" And then she was like, "Well, this you don't have the right barcode on it." And she was like, and I asked, I was like, "Okay, well, is there like another pair? Like, can we go get another parent, swap it out, you know, possibly get another tag?" >> And she was like, "Uh, she radioed someone." Uh, and then we were just like, "It's okay. Never mind. We're just going to go." >> Okay. So, they Okay, so here's what's going to happen. Okay. We're going to take you guys to Walmart. Okay. I got to look at this footage and confirm one that it's both YouTube, okay? And whether or not you you shoplifted or not. Okay? So, if there's no bar switching or anything like that or where what you're doing is reasonable in nature in terms of trying to scan the stuff, then we'll address that. Okay. However, if the video does show that, you know, you're trying to switch tags, you're clearly not trying to pay for items. Okay. We're going to have to address that. Okay. All right. Hang on. Okay. We're have to go to Walmart. Okay. Now, everybody wants to be shopping. Like two other ones came out, huh? >> Just one clos shop. I don't know if it's true or not. Okay.

You scan you scan two items and then you just start reaching across and put them in the bags. Okay. There you weren't attempting to scan them. It's not what it looks like at all. Okay. Home girl has makeup and all kinds of stuff in the cart. Okay. You give her a bag. She starts putting in that bag. Never even left the cart to be attempted to scan. Okay. Who put the the the different barcodes on the diapers? >> I'm not sure. >> Okay. You're not sure? >> Yeah. It might I don't know cuz we're just grabbing things. >> You're just grabbing things.

The officer decides both women will face shoplifting charges plus the warrants. >> She has warrants. She's going to go to jail for the shoplifting. Okay.

So like they kind of like started they bumped her. The citizen bumped her from there.

No. >> Heather is found with $110 in her possession, which is documented along with her arrest paperwork. Officers remain professional, calmly completing the booking process and expressing hope that she doesn't make the same mistake again. Repeatedly returning to places where you've been banned only leads to legal consequences, no matter your excuse. Refusing to cooperate with law enforcement escalates situations quickly and never ends well. Do you believe this shoplifter was overreacting? Tell it in the comment. >> Bring your car face the wall. You keep saying stop moving. I'm not going nowhere. >> A group of teens spent the day hopping from store to store, stuffing their car with stolen clothes and merchandise until they were finally caught red-handed.

[music] >> I >> Shortly after arriving, officers quickly cuffed all three suspects. But things took a turn when one defiant teen made a scene, resisting as they tried to place her in the back of the patrol car. >> Oh, you cannot sit down. >> You're being rough. >> You keep moving. Stop moving. It ain't hard. It ain't hard. >> I'm doing something. >> Will you stop? >> Bro, I'm not doing nothing. You keep saying stop. What the [ __ ] >> Stop moving. >> I'm not doing nothing.

[music] >> Can you fit me? My feet. >> We are trying. But the issue is you keep tricking everybody. >> After a long struggle, the resisting teen was finally secured in the vehicle. With that settled, officers turned to another suspect who casually revealed that the trio of thieves were in fact cousins. >> What's your address? What's [music] your mom's name? >> Okay, it's okay. Don't cry. >> I don't know. >> Are they like your cousins or friends? Your cousins. Okay. [music] Starbucks napkin. Okay. >> Okay. It's okay.

Inside Sebald, they uncovered what could only be described as a treasure chest of stolen goods, confirming the teen's shoplifting spree. >> This is what we got in the back so far. Did you Did they take Crocs from you guys? >> Yes. >> All right. So, these are a bunch of Crocs here. [music] I got I still got to go inside here. So, I don't know what else they might have taken. >> It's probably just all this that was in the back seat with them cuz I don't think they open the trunk. Uh, sir, if you want to go ahead and grab all this stuff right here. >> Yeah, I'm going to open the trunk. There's nothing in this bag at all.

I don't know. We don't know its value cuz obviously we haven't made a receipt." >> A few days later, the same suspect who had kicked an officer came to the station hoping to retrieve her cell phone. But when she learned it was gone, she completely melted down, adding yet another dramatic twist to her case. >> Hi. You remember me? >> I do. You get under me? >> Yes. >> My cell phone. >> So, we got to the bottom of it. Okay. When all the commotion was taking place, the phone was placed on top of the >> Oh, hell no. I told Listen, listen to me. I'm trying to help you out. Okay. >> So, with that being said, okay, we've documented it.

I'm not even done shopping. Who out? On October 27th, 2023 in Ohio, police were dispatched to a local gas station after receiving a report that a woman had been caught shoplifting and then fled the scene on foot. It didn't take long while patrolling the area. Officers quickly spotted a woman matching the suspect's description. >> Stop. Because you took the food from the store. >> I just took some crackers. >> Yeah, I know. You can't do that. >> Huh? >> You can't do that. Okay, then. Hold on. Hold on. >> Hold on. Hold on. Hold on.

I HAVE LUPUS AND I HAVE A PACEMAKER. >> Turn over. >> I HAVE A PACEMAKER. >> TURN OVER NOW. >> OKAY. >> ON YOUR STOMACH. >> OKAY. >> On your stomach. Don't get up. >> I'm not running. >> The woman claimed that a female staff member at the gas station had touched her inappropriately. But even if that were true, it didn't give her the right to steal. Regardless of the circumstances, she was going to have a lot of explaining to do. >> Me. >> Well, it's not connected to you anymore. >> Okay. Okay. >> Okay. That's >> all right. Stand up. We can You should have pulled away and pushed off of me and ran from me. >> You scared me. >> I scared you. >> Okay. >> Okay. Listen, the lady I have a full car. Uh, you can use 862 uh forest court, >> sir. >> Walk down here. >> Ow. It's still something on me. >> Yeah, I know there is. It's called a probe. >> Walk. >> All right. We'll get food, sir. Can I >> Okay. You can't steal. >> I wasn't stealing it. >> Did you pay for it? >> She touched my She went in the bathroom. I was in the bathroom. Sir, listen. >> Have a seat. The officer made it clear that her story didn't justify the theft and that running from him only made things worse. If she had truly been assaulted, he explained she should have been eager to report it, not flee the scene. She did, however, admit that she was simply hungry. >> You're a grown adult. >> I took the chance cuz I wanted to eat. >> Okay. You have your ID in here? >> No, [screaming] >> sir. >> You don't have your ID? >> No, sir. >> Then what's your name? What's your name? >> Tyler. >> Huh? >> Tyler. Ow.

You want to know your own social security number? >> No, sir. I have dementia. >> Okay. >> Spell your first name. >> Although the woman claimed her first name was Tyler, she couldn't e or wouldn't at provide a last name during questioning. As more officers arrived on the scene, she tried every excuse in the book to dodge the [music] charges, citing everything from inappropriate touching and having a pacemaker to claiming she had lupus and even dementia. >> Come on. Get that. Get that. This ain't helping. >> I know it's not helping. You should have helped yourself by just stopping. >> So, the lady comes in the bathroom. I'm not done. I'm not even done shopping. Whole out. Pants on ground. She comes in there. My bag is in between my legs. She goes in between my legs and start grabbing the stuff. I said, "Lady, I'm not even done shopping. >> Food and half of the not even hers. All I got was crackers and cookies from that and went in there and she has the right to walk in the bathroom with my girl and then Oh my god. >> between your legs. >> I had my bag because I was using the bathroom in the gas station. She comes in there and grabs me. >> What happened after that? >> I walked out cuz I'm I'm pissed. >> Truth or not, you've got to give her credit. She's one heck of a storyteller. When the officer searched her bag, it was packed not only with food, but also filled with needles. The suspect claimed they were for various medications, but given everything else, her explanation was met with serious skepticism. >> Cuz I like to get there fast, you know. >> Oh, come on. That's not that big of a deal. I'm not a big deal because this could have been >> seen summons for you to do ALL THIS EXTRA STUFF. You're being way too extra. I'm It could be a summon, man. I don't want any Whoa. He looks like my cousin. >> You look just like my cousin Paul. >> Are you her cousin? >> He looks like Paul. >> McCoy. >> So, okay. >> Wait a minute. I can tell you what food is hers and what food ain't hers. The donuts hers, the cookies, and the nutter butters hers. Everything else belongs to me. Okay. Now the lady comes in. She totally threw me off. I came to look. Food stamp card right there. Boom. >> The officer pressed the suspect once again to identify herself, but it was clear she was being deceptive. She even claimed she couldn't provide her social security number because she had supposedly forgotten it, blaming it on her alleged dementia. >> Oh, is that right? >> Yeah. Why? I didn't use her name. I don't know what the name is. >> Well, I don't know what name you are. >> Hold on. Wait. Fart. Put that back. >> No. Uh-uh. >> That's for the fool. What are you talking about? >> Don't matter. It's not yours. [screaming] I got permission to use that. >> Okay. Whose name's on here? >> I don't know. >> Oh, there you go. >> I got it from him. >> What is your name? Because we're not we're done playing this nonsense cuz I will send you to J to the county. You will sit there and rot until you tell them your name. You understand me? We're not doing this. You can be in and out real quick if you just give us your name and your information. If you want to play games, I will send their there's Jane Doe. You will rot all weekend. I guarantee you will start feeling the itch when you're in there. >> I don't want to go to jail. >> Okay, I know you don't want to go to jail. We're beyond that. You could not have gone to jail if you just would have stopped right there and we put handcuffs on you, but you did not want to do that. All right, that's not how things are done. What is your name? >> This is where you talk. >> My name is Dar. >> There you go. >> What's your last name? >> What's your last name? Come on, man. Please. >> Come on. >> Although she eventually gave officers a different first name, she still refused to provide her last name. After being escorted to the back of the squad car, she continued to deny that the needles were for illegal drug use, insisting they were for an old anxiety medication that had been stolen. With her story full of holes, the officers returned to the gas station to get the staff side of what really happened. >> Bag. >> Yeah. >> You know what I'm saying? I'm like cuz I know you know and then when and then she had pain. Get out of here weirdo. And then she proceeded to shove me and I kind of went back you know and it took everything in me. I'm major here so I can't like >> Yeah. >> You know and I know they tell us not to confront them but it's like >> I I get tired of it. >> I got I agree with you 100%. >> So but I don't want her back in my store. >> Well, she's going to jail because she took off running for me and much other nonsense. But >> okay. >> Either way, um the other officers I don't know. Can you guys put these back in the shelf or >> Yeah, as long as she ain't got them open. The donuts I can't. >> Right. >> But with this stuff, I can't. >> Before being loaded into the back of a police van for transport to jail, the woman made one last attempt to avoid arrest, insisting they couldn't take her in because they didn't have her name. But as the officer had pointed out earlier, if she had just cooperated from the start, she likely would have walked away with nothing more than a court summon. Step on that face. >> I can't eat my food. They take everything from me. >> All right. Scoot up. >> All right. Just follow what I say. Okay. >> I didn't resist. They never even said, "Right." >> Okay. Well, right now I'll tell you that you have the right to tell me that after y'all to tase me. >> You don't have to say anything make any statements. You can stop talking. >> We're here right now. >> You don't have to say a word. >> All right. >> Get your screen. All right. >> You'll be all right. >> You're going right over there. You're going to step on the metal detector. >> The suspect was hit with multiple charges, including resisting arrest, misrepresenting her identity, obstructing official business, theft, and possession of drug paraphernalia. In the end, she was sentenced to 270 days in jail with 244 of those days suspended. Cooperation can go a long way. Refusing it only makes things worse. Lying to avoid consequences often leads to even bigger ones. What an unyielding shoplitter. The next Karen one will react much more violently.
