«Breaking News» Two Detroit women arrested after trying to steal from Target while store hosted 'Shop with a Cop'

Two Detroit women were caught trying to steal almost $2,000 from a Target while the store was hosting a fundraising event for area police to help disadvantaged children pick out Christmas presents.

Keiana Wilson, 40, and 18-year-old Dana Johnson were apprehended late on Wednesday night while the store was packed with officers and children for a 'Shop with a Cop' event. 

'I couldn't believe it,' Bloomfield Township Police Sgt. Dan Brown explained to the Detroit Free Press.  

Keiana Wilson, 40, and 18-year-old Dana Johnson were apprehended late on Wednesday night at the store located on 2400 Telegraph Rd

Police officers from the Sylvan Lake, Keego Harbor, Orchard Lake and Bloomfield Township departments were at the store for a 'Shop with a Cop' event. Officers had been helping 22 disadvantaged youth select Christmas presents for their families

Police officers from the Sylvan Lake, Keego Harbor, Orchard Lake and Bloomfield Township departments were at the 2400 Telegraph location. They had been helping 22 disadvantaged youth select Christmas presents for their families. 

The two Flint residents were seen on security camera loading a cart with two Apple watches, two iPads and a Nintendo gaming system around 7.30pm. 

They got past the cash registers but were apprehended soon after. 

'The loss prevention (officers) actually apprehended them, then they asked for police assistance,' said Sylvan Lake Police Sgt. Michael Mondeau. 'The police officers were only about 20 feet away when they tried to walk out of the store.'

Johnson had even complimented an officer earlier in the night commenting 'how generous the cops were with their time'

Mondeau was responsible for setting up the event. According to Brown, the teen had even complimented an officer earlier in the night commenting 'how generous the cops were with their time.'

He added: 'It wasn't 10 minutes later that (the same officer) gets called into the loss prevention office. She was trying to distract him.' 

Both women were arraigned at the 48th District Court and charged with retail fraud. 

Johnson was found to have had past criminal history and was given a $250,000 bond. Wilson's bond was set at $20,000. They are due in court on January 3.

Donations from local businesses and community members allowed the kids to spend roughly $5000 while the shopped for Christmas, Mondeau said. 

The Keego Harbor Police Department shared a photo from the event and thanked everyone for taking part. They also added a fun little jab at the two would be thieves. 

'On a side note, there must have been a special episode of "Dumb Criminal Minds" being filmed live as a person tried to shoplift a bunch of electronics right in front of about 10 cops,' the post stated. 'They didn't get far. DON'T TAKE WHAT IS NOT YOURS, it's a simple rule that everyone should abide by and the world would be a better place.'    

Facebook indicates that both women are mothers.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
