Walk It Through: The Shoplifting Stop
A jacket out the door, a summons, a value under $500, and a second charge for a price tag.
Police are called after a person walks out of a store with a jacket worth less than $500.
Two things a person in this spot might do. Picking one shows what the law says about it.
A retail theft with no force and no weapon. Robbery, burglary and receiving stolen property are on their own pages.
A practice walkthrough, not a prediction of how any real one will go. Legal information, not legal advice.
