Shoplifters caught in Napanee

By Ashley Clark [1]

BELLEVILLE – Two Napanee women have been charged with theft after stealing from Shoppers Drug Mart [2].

The suspects were seen taking products from the store and then setting off the security alarm, which prompted an employee to call the OPP.

The event happened on Friday around 5:30 p.m..

Police say the store provided a description of the two women, which helped OPP find the suspects at a nearby location. Three bottles of perfume were confiscated.

A 37-year-old and a 21-year-old are both charged with theft under $5000. The younger woman also faces charges of failing to comply with a probation order [3].

In addition, the older woman is charged with two more counts of theft under $5000. Police say these charges are coming from previous investigations where several bottles of liquor were stolen from LCBO [4] on Jan. 30 and Feb. 3.

The two women were released on a Promise to Appear. They will go to Provincial Court in Napanee on March 29.
