Women Using Self-Checkout Arrested After Not Scanning Items At Michigan Walmart

I guess she messed ’round and found it ’cause Walmart is not having it. Authorities are accusing a Michigan woman of stealing items using the self-checkout line.

According to Fox 2 Detroit, TeddyJo Marie Fliam, 34, didn’t scan all of her items back in July. When store associates confronted her, Fliam “allegedly became agitated, denied it, and left.”

An employee reviewed the footage and noticed she had stolen more than $1,000 worth of items by not scanning them when using the self-checkout line.

Fliam was arrested in September and charged with first-degree retail fraud.

Authorities are cracking down on shoplifting in Walmart. Loss Prevention also arrested two people who switched barcodes on electronics before attempting to checkout.

The store associate saw them “putting barcodes from inexpensive items onto more expensive items.”

More than $1,600 worth of merchandise was stolen from Walmart when swapping barcodes.

Roomies, what y’all think about this?
