The Polk County Sheriff’s Office reported that the incident happened on Dec. 18 at a Family Dollar in Mulberry,
A very public bowel movement was put to use when a Florida couple needed a distraction for large-scale shoplifting, according to investigators.
It happened in the middle of the day on Dec. 18 at a Family Dollar in Mulberry, and the outrageous plan worked, the Polk County Sheriff’s Office reported in a Jan. 9 Crime Stoppers post.
Detectives refer to the couple as “Mr. Clean” and “Ms. Dookie” until an arrest is made. “The suspects … played different roles as they conspired in their retail theft.
Very different roles,” the sheriff’s office said. “The man walked around the store gathering nearly $500 worth of merchandise (like lots of Gain, Tide, and Clorox products) whilst the woman caused a distraction for employees by using the restroom … without going to the restroom. The floor was her restroom.”
As employees rushed to clean up the ”stuff,” the man calmly walked past the cash registers with his cart piled high. The woman was recorded exiting the store not long after that, with a distinct grimace on her face.
The two left together in a white Ford van, officials said.
You just can’t make this sh*$ up. I guess the female suspect actually gave a sh*$. Clean up in isle 2! Too bad they didn’t clean up the mess with the stolen Clorox products. No clean get away.
