A Walmart Shopping Trip Turns Into Shoplifting Arrest
Who doesn’t love a nice shopping trip to Walmart?
You can find some great bargains, and in many cases, the selection can’t be beat.
For Florida Woman, however, that turned into a shoplifting trip that ended up with an arrest an a very bizarre attempt to explain what happened.
Florida man strikes again!
DATELINE – Palm Coast and in this case it is Florida Woman.
Her name is Amber McCann. She was caught shoplifting from Walmart and had a variety of stories as to why she was doing what she was doing.
It was a rather confusing discussion with the police. She said initially that she was playing a really fun game called “21” where someone grabs as much merchandise from a store as they can, walks out without paying and then tries not to get caught.
It appears that she failed on that part.
The Police Video Is Priceless
Florida Woman’s game of 21 (with police video)
She originally said that she dumped the items in a random car. She told police when she was in the parking lot she didn’t know what car it was.
Maybe it was silver, maybe it was gray. She didn’t know the make. It was just a random car.
When they asked her for ID, she said, oh, I left that in the car too.
When asked which car again didn’t remember the color, didn’t remember the maker model.
Then she changed the story a bit and said that it was a rental car that her boyfriend had gotten. But he didn’t know that she was stealing stuff because he’s too old to play the game “21.”
Amber, by the way, is 30. I’m not sure how old too old is.
The Walmart Shoplifting Haul
Well, the police were eventually able to figure out which car it was. And the backseat of the car, you’d think she’d been Christmas shopping in April. More than a thousand dollars worth of stolen goods were found in the backseat.
Oh, but wait, there’s more.
There were drugs including marijuana and meth and drug paraphernalia.
Those probably weren’t from Walmart.
And when the cops opened up the trunk, they found something else that probably wasn’t from Walmart either.
And that was a safe. It was locked. And when they opened it up, they found bars of silver, copper and platinum.
Well, not only did Amber fail at the game “21,” she’s been charged with grand theft, possession of marijuana, hashish, possession of drug paraphernalia, trafficking of meth.
But she did get a brand new free set of designer bracelets, also known as handcuffs from the Flagler County Police Department.
