Eight people have been arrested on suspicion of organized retail theft after authorities discovered several million dollars' worth of stolen medicines, cosmetics and other merchandise at multiple Los Angeles locations, L.A. County sheriff's officials announced this week. The retail goods were stolen by crews of organized shoplifters at stores in California, Arizona and Nevada, according to detectives. The stolen items were then taken to various locations in L.A.
The suspects, who were not named, are being held on $60,000 bail each. Early Thursday morning, sheriff's detectives performed raids at a dozen locations in Los Angeles County thought to be involved in the crime ring, according to KCAL CBS. At a small South L.A. market, they found boxes of stolen Motrin, Theraflu and other goods stacked floor to ceiling, the report said. Store tags were still affixed to much of the merchandise.
