A
Nigerian woman, Jennifer Akudihor who is on holiday in the US has been arrested
by Kansas city police department for allegedly shop lifting clothing items and
accessories worth nearly $2,000 at Oak Park Mall in Kansas last week Tuesday.
According
to KMBC.com, Police reports states that Jennifer who was with two toddlers and
an infant when she was arrested, hid 66 items in shopping bags and inside the
stroller she was pushing through Macy's at Oak Park Mall.
She
has been charged with felony theft and ordered to hand over her passport.
Jennifer was in court last Wednesday and her bail was set at $2,500. She was
apologetic during her first court appearance.
“The
officer in the report said that she was very apologetic and remorseful, and
that does go a long way, and he put that in the report, so I think it does help
in this situation. Everybody has a story. There’s always a lot of reasons why
people do this, and it’s not for us to decide. It’s up to the courts and the
judge to look at her case.” said Sgt. Gary Mason of the Overland Park Police
Department.
