Fairfax County Police arrested a man and two women whom they say stole thousands of dollars worth of clothing from the Lord & Taylor store at Tysons Corner on Friday.
FCPD’s Tysons Urban Team (TUT) was called to the store about 8:30 p.m. after a store security official notified them of of suspicious activity.
Store security informed TUT that a male and two female suspects involved in a retail theft ring were currently in their store. The suspects exited the store and attempted to flee in a vehicle, but were detained in the parking lot, police said. In the car, officers found stolen merchandise along with tools geared to defeat the store security systems.
Police said more than $76,000 worth of property was seized from the retail theft ring. Among those arrested were a 39-year-old man and a 28-year-old woman from Florida. They have both been charged with grand larceny, possession of stolen property with intent to sell, and possession of a burglarious tool.
A third person, a 20-year-old woman from Florida, was also arrested and charged with providing a false identity to law enforcement. The charge was subsequently dismissed by the Fairfax County General District Court.
