GRAB AND RUN – MELBOURNE, FL

On 5/28/2024, at 11:57 a.m., a female subject stopped at a jewelry kiosk inside of a mall and asked about gold chains, and then asked to see a particular chain. Once the chain was presented, the subject asked about another chain. As the sales associate was looking into the showcase, she observed the subject slide her hand down with the chain and place it in her pocket. The sales associate then immediately asked the subject for the chain. The subject replied, “I gave it back to you. You can call Mall Security.”

As soon as the team member picked up her phone to call Mall Security, the subject ran from the store and through the Food Court Exit. The subject’s car was identified as a red Toyota Corolla with a Florida license plate. The subject was described as Black and in her late 40’s. She is 5’4″ and thin. She has black hair down to her shoulders, and she was last seen wearing a white tank top, jeans shorts, and flip flops. She also carried two handbags.
