ORANGE, Calif.—California Highway Patrol (CHP) officers arrested three “sophisticated” thieves at The Outlets at Orange mall, the agency announced Dec. 22.
Investigators from the CHP’s Organized Retail Crime Task Force first noticed two suspects, a male and female, walking toward the mall with “booster” bags, a special type of handmade bag that uses foil to allow shoplifters to leave stores with stolen items without setting off anti-theft alarms.
