Bras Stolen from Scranton, PA Victoria's Secret
Scranton police are investigating a theft from a Victoria's Secret store in the
city. They say it's similar to other thefts at Victoria's Secret outside
Wilkes-Barre but so far, no one has been caught. Scranton police were called to
the Victoria's Secret store inside The Mall at Steamtown Monday morning.
Managers told them that sometime last week, a robber made off with 20 bras.
Police are hoping to catch the robbers, but they may be limited in what they can
do after that. That theft of 20 bras doesn't seem as unusual as it may have been
several months ago.

Twin Cities ORCA to hold first annual conference
in Minneapolis on Aug. 3-4, 2015
 In October 2014, a group of dedicated law enforcement, crime analysts, corporate
fraud and loss prevention investigators, and prosecutors created the Twin Cities
Organized Retail Crime Association (TCORCA), 501c4 nonprofit corporation, as a
private/public partnership to fight Organized Retail Criminal Enterprises
negatively affecting our businesses and communities in the Twin Cities
metropolitan area, greater Minnesota, and the upper Midwest region. The creation
of this Minnesota-based ORCA with ties to the 30+ other ORCAs in the U.S. will
facilitate the ability to formalize information sharing and bring these types of
criminal cases to prosecution in a more efficient, effective, and timely manner.
TCORCA will hold its first annual Twin Cities Organized Retail Crime
Association Training and Conference at the Crowne Plaza Minneapolis West in
Plymouth, Minnesota on August 3-4, 2015. The conference includes advanced training on numerous
topics from subject matter experts across the country. Speakers include
representation from federal, state, and local law enforcement officials, as well
as dynamic leaders across the retail and financial services spectrum. For
