As soon as Martha saw the boy enter the store again, she knew she had to run back and check the video camera footage to see what he was really up to. In her more than 10 years of working at the supermarket, Martha had come across all sorts of people from all walks of life, but nothing prepared her for this encounter.
When she first saw the 10-year-old boy come in, she noted that he went straight to the candy aisle, picked up a pack of candies and quickly came to check out. As he tried to leave the store, the alarm sounded and he immediately looked concerned.
Martha watched as the store’s security guard came over to check things out. After a quick once over, the boy was allowed to leave because the alarm had been acting up for over a week and the guard didn’t find anything peculiar on the child.
After watching this happen a few times, Martha stood in the backroom watching the footage, completely shocked when she spotted the boy promptly walking down the baby aisle. His hands looked super fidgety, but he finally reached out and picked up something that he shoved down his pants.
After Martha saw him grab an item that he kept hidden underneath his clothes, the kid went straight to the candy aisle, likely to make it seem as though he hadn’t been stealing from the store this entire time.
