A Woodbury man has been charged with stealing multiple bottles of fragrance from JCPenney in Eden Prairie while making a getaway in a stolen SUV.
Joseph Tyler Briseno, 40, was charged with one count of theft over $1,000 and one count of receiving stolen property, both felonies.
On May 18, Eden Prairie officers were dispatched to the JCPenney store in Eden Prairie Center. Store staff observed an Aisan man concealing numerous bottles of fragrance inside his shirt and jacket. The man was later identified as Briseno.
Police say Briseno left the store without paying for 15 bottles of fragrance valued at $1,224 and got into a silver SUV without license plates.
Officers had received reports of stolen fragrance from JCPenney stores in Eden Prairie and Roseville on May 11. Security footage from May 11 confirmed it was Briseno, according to the criminal complaint. In the Roseville incident, store staff caught the license plates of the silver SUV, and the vehicle was identified as stolen.
In Eden Prairie on May 18, officers say they found the license plates inside the SUV Briseno was driving and confirmed that it was the stolen vehicle.
