Serial shoplifter arrested two times in one week after pulling gun on Target LP
officer then hits another Target store Saturday A South Carolina man
wanted for pulling a gun on a Target employee last week after getting caught
shoplifting was arrested Saturday while attempting to steal more merchandise
from another Target store. At the store, a loss prevention officer confronted
Waldrop, but rather than confessing, Waldrop pulled a silver handgun on the
officer instead. He eventually eluded authorities when he drove off in a
cream-colored car, Greenville County Deputy Drew Pinciaro said. However, less
than a week later, police received a call at a different Target store in
Anderson, about 40 miles away from the first store. Apparently the store’s
employees had recognized Waldrop from surveillance photos posted across various
Target stores. Waldrop was arrested and now faces charges for armed robbery and
possession of a gun during the commission of a violent crime, both of which are
felonies. (Source

feed her heroin habit, was arrested by Leesburg police Friday afternoon. Police
were called to Lowe’s on U.S. Highway 441 by a loss prevention officer, who said
several Hispanic males had been stealing items from the store and returning them
in exchange for gift cards. The loss prevention officer said she saw a Hispanic
male returning items like those recently stolen and went to look for a white
female that has been seen with the men. The loss prevention officer said she
spotted a woman, later identified as Sarah Oliver, reportedly concealing
shelving items in her purse before leaving the store. Oliver was approached, her
purse was checked and 52 shelf racks — worth more than $240 — were recovered,
