Shoppers browsing the aisles of a local Target had no idea that one woman was secretly staging one of the store’s biggest thefts in recent memory.
According to police, the suspect entered the store in the morning and remained there for more than seven hours, carefully filling carts and bags with high-value items. Surveillance footage shows her moving slowly through departments, concealing merchandise, and even switching disguises throughout the day to avoid suspicion.
By the time security finally moved in, investigators say she had attempted to walk out with thousands of dollars worth of electronics, clothing, and beauty products. Stunned employees described it as the “most brazen shoplifting attempt” they had ever seen.
The woman was arrested at the scene and now faces multiple felony theft charges. Authorities say the case highlights just how far some will go to exploit big-box retailers — and how patient shoplifters can be in hopes of slipping away unnoticed.
The story, along with clips of the surveillance video, has since gone viral, with viewers shocked at the sheer time and effort invested in the heist.
