Video: Trio steal baby milk
Video material shows how a trio of women stole baby milk formula worth thousands of rands from a local grocery store in Mineralia.
Leon Prinsloo, manager at the OK Grocer in Jeppe Street, says that he wants to warn other shop owners to be on the lookout for these women.
The video shows how three women, all with over sized handbags, enter the store and head straight for the baby milk isle.
The women enter the isle with their backs to the camera. They load nine tins, eight large ones and one small one, into their trolleys. In a different isle, they take the milk from their trolleys and hide it in their handbags.
They left the shop without buying anything and drove off in a white Opel Corsa with GP number plates.
The incident, which happened earlier this week, is not the first of it’s kind. Mr Prinsloo says that this is the third time that something like this has happened.
“They are definitely doing the same thing at other shops.”
It is unclear what the women are doing with the milk. Each tin is said to cost around R230.
