Q. Hi Larry. Last Wednesday (June 4) around 9 a.m., two women were handcuffed bytarget.jpg Torrance police outside the Target in Torrance. I was just wondering what, if any, were they arrested for. I also noticed that these the same women were being followed by a man inside Target. I didn't put anything to it at the time.

Thank you and keep up the good work.

A. Shoplifting. The man following the women inside the store was a loss prevention officer. Police were called to the store and arrested the women on suspicion of petty theft.

Shoplifting is a serious offense that costs retailers millions, however many are wrongfully accused.
