Mississippi Cop Arrested, Brought to Station in Own Cruiser After Shoplifting Sneakers in Uniform
A Mississippi police officer was arrested and brought to the station in her own police cruiser after getting caught shoplifting sneakers in uniform.
Robin Conner, 33, was on duty earlier this week when she went to a Dicks Sporting Goods in Columbus.
Conner tried on a pair of $140 sneakers, then attempted to leave the store while still wearing them.
Columbus Police Chief Joseph Daughtry told The Dispatch that he responded to the scene himself.
“An employee observed them and detained the officer and called 911,” Daughtry said. “911, knowing it was an officer, called the (shift supervisor) and they notified us. Myself, the assistant chief and the captain over patrol all responded.”
“We’re putting her in jail,” Daughtry said.
