Hundreds of Dollars In Baby Formula Stolen From Oak Creek Meijer

OAK CREEK, WI — Oak Creek police responded to the Meijer on W. Drexel Town Square Way just before 8 a.m. on May 20 on a report that a couple stole more than 20 cans of baby formula from the store.

Police reports indicated that a man wearing a dark gray jacket and a woman wearing a black jacket entered the store with an empty cart, then went to the baby section and placed approximately 20 cans of baby formula into the cart.

They then went to another aisle where they placed all 20 cans into a shopping bag that they brought into the store.

Once the baby formula was concealed, they proceeded to walk out of the store without attempting to purchasing the items.

The greeter at the doors asked to see their receipt, however they continued to walk out of the store as the woman pretended she lost the receipt.

According to the report, the value of the baby formula was estimated at $338.40.
