The employee became aware of the malfeasance during an inventory of merchandise. In the second theft, the suspect is a woman who took something from the nearby Vince store later the same day. She remained in the store for 20 minutes after tucking the $365 scarf into her purse, purchasing a bag and a separate scarf and filling out a customer contact card with her personal information. That woman has an extensive criminal history involving theft.
