A woman was arrested at a shopping center in Cuautitlán, State of Mexico, when she attempted to steal more than a dozen jars of coffee hidden in her clothing. The scene, which was recorded and shared on social media, went viral and surprised users with the amount of items she was trying to take.
The 'shoplifter', as this type of criminal is known, reacted aggressively when the security guard asked her to wait for the arrival of the state police. The woman wore loose clothing and other items to conceal the stolen goods and avoid being discovered.
This case highlights the growing trend of women known as 'shoplifters' who steal products in stores and supermarkets. They often use distraction tactics and collaborate with other criminals to carry out their misdeeds. 'Shoplifters' have become popular on social media, where videos of their thefts are constantly shared.
Among the most commonly stolen items by these women are cosmetics, alcohol, electronic products, and high-value food. Often, they act more out of the opportunity to obtain valuable products than out of necessity. 'Shoplifters' use special clothing and devices such as corsets to hide the stolen items.
The incident at Bodega Aurrerá was reported by journalist Carlos Jiménez, who detailed that the woman was discovered by the guard while trying to steal the jars of coffee. The defiant attitude of the 'shoplifter' when confronted by security staff was recorded on video and shared online, generating diverse reactions among internet users.
