A Big Bag Purse Is A Big Plus

Another key component to successful shoplifting is carrying a large purse with easy access. This technique is perfectly demonstrated by this female suspect in the video - quickly grabbing an item off the shelf and slipping it discreetly into the bag.

Surveillance Footage Is Crystal Clear

So many times surveillance footage is blurry and grainy, but in this case, the images are crystal clear - which should make the identification of the suspects more probable even though three of them were wearing masks. Three of the four individuals wore masks, One female suspect allowed her mask to drop off, leaving her face fully visible for all the world to see.
