Thief tries stealing from same store one too many times

An 18-year-old Milwaukee woman who stole baby formula from a Menomonee Falls store on multiple occasions was apprehended after an observant store employee spotted the suspect while he was compiling a theft report.

According to Menomonee Falls police:

A woman entered Target, N95 W17707 Shady Lane, at two different times on Aug. 23, concealed about 35 cans of baby formula valued at $735, and left the store without paying.

At about 3 p.m. the next day, Aug. 24, a Target loss prevention officer was preparing his security reports and surveillance video in anticipation of reporting the crime when the same woman entered the store and attempted to steal more baby formula. The woman fled the store and the police were notified.

Menomonee Falls police located the vehicle at 3:10 p.m. and apprehended the suspect and the driver of the getaway car, a 27-year-old Milwaukee man. They were taken to the store and were positively identified by the store employee and video surveillance.

The woman was also responsible for the same crime at Target four days earlier on Aug. 19, when she was seen taking 11 cans of baby formula at 2:09 p.m., re-entering the store at 2:29 p.m. and taking another 10 cans of formula before fleeing in a black car. The total theft on Aug. 19 was $443.

The woman was arrested and charged with two state counts of retail theft. The driver of the getaway car was also arrested and charged with one count of retail theft.

Your Daily Focus:  Shortcut

Want a shortcut to getting into the best shape of your life? Then don’t start with exercise or diet!

Instead, prepare a path that will accelerate all you do nutritionally and physically. With all major transformations in our lives, the most important first step is mental… creating a new thought, developing it into a habit of thought, and then turning it into a belief. The world around you cannot resist what you truly believe on the inside. Your behaviors will ultimately have to align with your beliefs.

Here’s what I recommend as the first step: create an affirmation or “I am…” statement. How about “It’s a good thing I am in the best shape of my life!”  Now use that statement whenever you think about anything nutritionally or physically. When you are thinking about heading out to exercise and you are tired from a long day, say to yourself “It’s a good thing I am in the best shape of my life!” You might laugh a bit at first, but over time it will become more and more believable, and ultimately you will completely transform your thinking and actually “become” your affirmation.

When you are thinking of a dinner choice, say to yourself, “It’s a good thing I am in the best shape of my life!” See what choice you are then led to. Say it in the morning and see what choice you are led to for breakfast. Say it when you are waiting for an elevator and see if it leads you to the stairs.

It will help you to feel better, walk lighter, stand taller, breathe deeper, eat better, and exercise more and more and more. Try it… I dare you!  Like I mentioned, it feels and sounds a little weird at first, but stick with it. It really works. And it’s fun.

In all major transformations, 95% of the work is done below the surface, mentally and emotionally. You can actually shortcut any process by attending to the mental and emotional components first. You will then find what feels like a quantum leap or an overnight success when your outside world realigns with your inside world… your thoughts and beliefs.
