Teens allegedly stole thousands of dollars worth of beauty products in Orange County
Two teenagers were arrested for allegedly ransacking a store and stealing thousands of dollars worth of beauty products in Orange County.
The theft happened at a Walgreens located on the 6300 block of Irvine Boulevard on March 22, according to the Irvine Police Department.
Two 17-year-old girls had entered the store and began ransacking the shop, taking as many beauty products as they could carry, police said.
The teenagers were spotted by officers walking out of the store with thousands of dollars worth of merchandise “concealed under their clothing.”
The girls were stopped and during their arrest, police discovered around $3,000 worth of beauty products had been taken from the shop.
Photos of the stolen goods show a variety of beauty and personal care products including liquid and powder foundations, lip gloss, expensive face creams, cleansers, lotions, body creams and more.
