Chicago woman arrested in organized theft from Neiman-Marcus in Oak Brook

A Chicago woman is charged with stealing more than $17,000 in goods from the Neiman-Marcus department store at Oakbrook Center in Oak Brook.

Bail was set Sunday at $50,000 for Terri Collins, 21, of the 100 block of West 110th Street, according to a news release from the DuPage County state's attorney's office.

Collins is charged with felony burglary and felony retail theft.

Authorities allege that around 2:54 p.m. Saturday, Collins and several other people entered the store and met with two men in the store. They all went to a coat section, cut security wires off 14 Moncler brand coats, took them and ran toward a door. A store security worker knocked coats and wire cutters out of Collins' hands, and she was detained. Additional coats were found outside the store.

"Smash-and-grab thefts involving multiple individuals are not a crime of opportunity," state's attorney Robert Berlin said in the news release. "They are well organized by those who resort to violence and sheer numbers to commit their crimes."

Her mistake was to do this outside of Chicago and Cook County. Pinkie may actually get prosecuted and punished.

There’s a mall in my suburban town that has some pretty high end stores...Louis Vitton,Neiman Marcus,Gucci and a few others.Nothing’s happened there recently...but a year or two ago Gucci had many expensive handbags stolen in a lightening attack.

I went into a Tiffany’s once and before they pulled out the expensive stuff the clerk signaled to the security gard at the front and he locked the front door.

In her sad little mind, it’s just reparations.

“A store security worker knocked coats and wire cutters out of Collins’ hands, and she was detained.”

Wow, that’s a first! But who is he to deprive her of what she needs to support her family?

The hair color must be appropriated from Martians. I hope they don’t attack us out of anger for that.

The purple wig wouldn’t look good with the blue top she was wearing.

She’s a real doll. Probably an aspiring rap singer too.

If enough "Smash-and-grab" thefts are done in white liberal elite suburban communities maybe those folks will stop with their stupid 'compassion for criminals'... Maybe they'll get real when this type of crime is in their back yards and not just in working class neighborhoods.

Hey liberal elites - do YOU still want to de-fund the cops?

Have they arrested an equal number of people of other races?
