Inside that vehicle police observed and seized several plastic bags containing hundreds of items of clothing, and footwear that were determined to have been stolen from approximately 13 different stores at Clinton Crossing Outlets today.”

Dunn said the recovered stolen property was valued at nearly $10,000.
