An employee of a drugstore observed on Wednesday how a woman put several items into her bag and attempted to leave the store in Vienna-Favoriten without paying for the goods.
When the employee addressed the woman, she reportedly reacted very aggressively. The 37-year-old also behaved uncooperatively towards the police officers.
Shoplifter Arrested on Suspicion of Commercial Theft
During a search of her person, goods worth several hundred euros were discovered in the shoplifter's handbag. Further investigations revealed that the 37-year-old had already been reported several times in recent months for the same criminal offense. The suspect was provisionally arrested on suspicion of commercial theft and taken to a correctional facility on the orders of the Vienna public prosecutor's office.
