Slidell bandits scan, steal groceries at local Winn Dixie, Sheriff's Office says
The St. Tammany Parish Sheriff' Office is seeking the public's help identifying two women who are accused of stealing groceries. The incident occurred at the Winn Dixie at 2985 E. Gause Blvd. in Slidell.
All told, the food bandits allegedly made off with $216.16 worth of groceries, the Sheriff's Office said. The theft occurred on July 4, the Sheriff's Office said, and the precise price was available because the women had actually scanned the items at checkout.
The heist involved quickly departing with the items after they were scanned and bagged, the sheriff's office said. After one of the thieves bolted with the grocery cart, the other remained behind trying "to pay with a faded and battered check," the Sheriff's Office said.
The machine declined such a payment.
