On Thursday, Dec. 23, at about 9:45 p.m., Oro Valley police responded to the Walmart at Tangerine and Oracle roads in reference to shoplifting. When police arrived, the loss prevention employee had the suspect in his office. The employee said the suspect put several items, including jewelry, clothes, sunglasses and other items, in her jacket and purse, with some in plastic bags not from Walmart. The suspect told police she did not intend to steal anything when she came into the store, but tried to steal the items because she was experiencing financial difficulties and her children deserved the items. When police searched her, they found more jewelry hidden in a torn pocket section of her jacket and some sunglasses and scent blocks in her bags. She was arrested for shoplifting and told she would be charged with trespassing if she returned to a Walmart store. She was released and escorted out of the building.
