But this report from the Cookeville, Tennessee Herald-Citizen shows that might not be completely true.

A Dollar Store employee claims to have seen a woman place several items into her purse. The employee approached the woman, giving her a chance to pay for the items.

“She walked out of the store, but when she got to her vehicle, she realized that she had locked her keys in the vehicle and she came back in,”

says the police report.

Not all shoplifters are professionals.
