raid on a Pet Store Michelle Hawkins, who opened Toughmutts Country
Supplies in Staunton, only ten months ago, suspects the burglary on Sunday
November 2 was planned well in advanced. She noticed a total of 46 sacks of
feed, as well as dog leads and harnesses, worth in excess of $4,800 were missing
when she turned up to open the shop on Monday morning. "This is a new business
venture for us," Michelle said. "We are supposed to be in a community-minded
village. I have been working here seven days per week and I am not drawing a
wage yet. "They must have had a big 4x4 as there was a hell of a lot of big bags
of feed."

Mom
says thieves created baby formula shortage; Two Muskegon, MI suspects identified
Police say they have identified the two women accused of stealing
hundreds of dollars' worth of baby formula from Muskegon-area stores. The Norton
Shores Police said the suspects stole more than $1,000 worth of baby formula.
The two suspects were caught on surveillance camera leaving one of the stores.
Candice Kops, a mother of three, told 24 Hour News 8 she was personally impacted
by the thefts. "The past couple of weeks, I have had a problem with getting my
girls specialty formula, the Enfamil Enfacare. I've had to search all over
Muskegon County," said Kops. Kops has 7-month-old twin daughters who were born
three months premature and need the specific formula to stay healthy. "Because
the girls were so small, they need the extra calories to boost their weights.
And one was weighing one pound, 15 ounces when she was born and the other one
was two pounds, five and a half ounces. That extra bit of calories means a lot
to them because they were so little and they spent 64 and 68 days in the
hospital," Kops said. According to Kops, stores receive a limited supply of the
Enfamil Enfacare because it is expensive - it costs around $17 per can - and not
a lot of people need it. Empty shelves at a Meijer store Wednesday afternoon
helped prove that claim.
