Our road patrol deputies responded to a shoplifting in progress at a local Supermarket. The suspect, a young mother named Alicia, got out of the store and made it home before our Street Team Deputy Thomas San Filippo located her. Alicia had stolen two boxes of diapers, sippy bottles, two toy cars, and a doll.

She explained to us that she has been down on her luck and recently had to move in with her mom. She can no longer afford supplies for her baby so she attempted to steal them. Unfortunately, the supermarket wanted to press charges and she had to be arrested. However, once the paperwork was completed, Deputy San Filippo brought the property back to Publix, got in line, purchased the supplies Alicia had stolen, and brought it back to her for her baby!
