How's this for bizarre? A pair of "bra bandits" were caught stealing $11,000 worth of lingerie from a Victoria's Secret store in Folsom, California, USA. They even managed to run out of the store with their enormous haul after pepper-spraying an employee (don't worry, the employee wasn't hurt). Fortunately, an alert police officer spotted them just as they were making their getaway and immediately arrested them.
In a Facebook post, Folsom Police posted a picture of the lingerie haul which showed over a hundred colourful padded bras which the women had reportedly stuffed into several large bags.
According to the Folsom Police Department, an employee confronted the two women as they were fleeing the store with bags full of stolen lingerie on Friday. That's when one of them whipped out pepper spray and attacked the employee. Luckily, the employee was not hurt and was able to give the police a description of the getaway car.
The women were found to have stolen over $11,000 worth of clothing. Both women were charged with robbery and conspiracy. One of the women was also booked for possession of a counterfeit $100 bill, which was found in her possession during the investigation.
This is the second bizarre robbery attempt in California to go viral on social media this week.
