Burglary!

We had a robber last week at our outlet store in Lindon. A couple came into our store. The man asked our store manager, Carrie, if he could make candleholders for our store. Meanwhile, his wife walked around the store frantically. She went up and down a hallway that customers aren’t allowed, and all throughout the store. Carrie thought it was strange, but didn’t think much of it.

After a few minutes the lady ran out the door, and her husband left with her quickly. Later that day another woman knocked on the door two minutes after the store had closed. She said she really needed something. She also asked if Carrie knew that a woman walked down her hallway earlier that day. Carrie said yes. It was strange.

Carrie didn’t use her wallet that night. The next morning she went to a store. When she got to the register, she didn’t have her wallet! It was gone! Then, she put it all together.

She canceled her cards and reported it to the police. The couple had used her credit card the night before! Fortunately, a store clerk thought something was fishy when the woman wrote a check for over $300 in her store. The clerk called Carrie and asked if she had just gone to her store. Carrie said no. The store clerk wrote the license plate number down and the police caught the couple. They had been caught for stealing before.
