A Warwick woman admitted attempting to steal two bottles of perfume from Brown & Co when she appeared in Magistrates’ Court today.
Desire Scraders, 49, was released on $500 bail and will reappear for mention tomorrow to determine if a psychological evaluation and social inquiry report should be made before sentencing.
Crown counsel Loxly Ricketts told the court that Scraders was seen shopping in the store around 12.35pm on October 9.
Management watched the woman and approached her to investigate.
The retail manager was able to see two boxes of perfume hidden in Scraders’ purse, at which point the operations manager asked her to follow him to the upstairs office, said Ms Ricketts.
As she followed the managers, they observed Scraders take the perfume boxes out of her purse and try to place them on a glass shelf.
When security picked up the perfume boxes, Scraders then attempted to leave the store via the rear entrance.
After initially resisting, management and security were able to detain Scraders until police arrived
