Midland Mi. Nov. 30, 2007
A clumsy Saginaw thief thwarted her own larceny when she ran into a door at a Midland department store.
Security agents at Target, 6820 Eastman, called police about 8:45 p.m. Wednesday after noticing two shoppers behaving suspiciously as they filled hand-held baskets with nearly $2,000 worth of small electronics, DVDs, CDs and jewelry, said Deputy Chief Robert D. Lane.
"They were doing some Christmas shop-lifting," Lane said. "They loaded up a couple of baskets full of goods and ran out the door. Well, one girl ran into the door and dropped her basket."
The other suspect made it to a waiting van, Lane said.
"Fortunately, a police officer was fairly close and as soon as the girl ran to the van, a patrol car was right there and made a stop on it," he said.
Two Saginaw women, 18 and 28, went to jail on retail fraud charges. Police took two young Saginaw women into custody but later released the 15- and 16-year-olds to their parents, Lane said.
