Woman uses baby carrier to shoplift at Belk
ROCK HILL --
A woman pretending to have a baby in a baby carrier used it to shoplift more than $1,000 worth of clothes from a local department store, police say.
Felicia Ann Messer, 24, of Lancaster was arrested on a shoplifting charge Monday evening at Belk, a department store in the Galleria Mall on Dave Lyle Boulevard.
An employee saw Messer enter the store, put a baby carrier in a shopping cart and begin walking around, according to a Rock Hill police report. She had placed a blanket over the carrier to make it appear as though a baby were in the carrier and put clothing underneath it. She then walked into a dressing room and hid the clothing more before leaving the store without paying.
The employee stopped her at her car and waited for police, the report states.
The total amount of the items was $1,169.
