The quick actions of retail staff and Kenilworth’s Safer Neighbourhood Team led to the arrest of a shoplifter on Friday 31 May 2024.
The shoplifter was pursued by staff from a leading chemist and retailer in Kenilworth Town Centre. PCSO’s Craig Ricardo and Sharlene Morgan were alerted by then town’s retail link radio and responded.
Consequently, a female was apprehended by PSCO’s Ricardo and Morgan and subsequently arrested and taken into police custody from Waverley Road, Kenilworth
A bag of items taken from the retailer was recovered nearby containing goods amounting to a significant value.
This event demonstrates how Kenilworth’s community acting quickly and working together can, alongside Warwickshire Police have an effective impact on deterring, preventing and stopping crime as well as delivering a positive result when crime is or has been committed.
Kenilworth Watch would like to like to say well done and thanks to both Craig and Sharlene for their actions on Friday and for helping keep our town as safe as possible.
