According to the arrest report, a deputy responded to Walmart in the 3200 of Market Street regarding a larceny. The deputy met with a Loss Prevention Associate who advised the woman had paid for seven items at the self-checkout and then left the self-checkout with multiple unpaid items, amounting to $729.17, passing all points of payment and leaving the store.
She was stopped by Loss Prevention and escorted to its office. She provided identification and after approximately 15 minutes she left the office and store in a Dodge Durango, according to the arrest report.
A deputy was shown video surveillance as she was escorted to the office. The deputy confirmed her identity and contacted Lyon County in an attempt to locate the woman.
Lyon County advised they located the woman at her home. The deputy responded and made contact with her, observing she was in the same clothing she was wearing when she attempted to steal the items from Walmart, the arrest report states.
The deputy explained the situation and advised of the Miranda warning, which she said she understood her rights. She told the officer she paid for a couple of items in the electronics section at Walmart and then continued shopping, selecting Christmas decorations and food items.
She said she went to the self-checkout and paid for approximately 7 items. She said she forgot to pay for the remaining items and went to leave the store. She was stopped and voluntarily went to the Loss Prevention office. She said she could no longer wait there because she had to pick up her children from school and so she left the store.
The deputy asked if she had picked up her children. She said that it was too late and they took the bus home. She was advised she failed to pay for an entire cart of items totaling $729.
The deputy was advised by a Parole and Probation officer, who arrived at the woman’s home at the time of the investigation, that she has been on probation with a condition to not enter any Walmart store. She was taken into custody and booked for grand larceny and the parole and probation violation. Bail: $25,000.
