Police on Tuesday afternoon arrested a 49-year-old Bronx, N.Y. woman by warrant in connection with a theft from a Forest Street shop earlier this year.
At about 5:11 p.m. on Feb. 17, officers were dispatched to The Athletic Shoe Factory regarding the theft of $780 in clothing by two women, according to a police report.
Using surveillance from inside the store and other businesses, officers in the New Canaan Police Patrol Division conducted an investigation that identified two suspects, the report said.
On March 17, the same two women returned to The Athletic Shoe Factory, which notified police, it said. Police found them, and interviewed one of them, leading to a confession regarding the earlier theft, the report said.
Police obtained warrants for their arrests.
The first of the two suspects turned herself in at about 2:30 p.m. on July 27, on charges of fifth-degree larceny and conspiracy.
The other suspect hasn’t turned herself in yet, police said.
The woman was released on $20,000 bond and scheduled to appear Aug. 10 in state Superior Court.
