A Mississippi cop was caught shoplifting on duty from a Dick's Sporting Goods while wearing her police uniform.
Robin Conner, 33, was arrested on Wednesday after she allegedly shoplifted a pair of $140 shoes from the retailer.
Conner has worked as a police officer with the Columbus Police force for two years and she was on duty at the time of the alleged crime, Police Chief Joseph Daughtry confirmed.
The alleged thief was in uniform and driving a police cruiser during her shoplifting spree.
Officers were called to the Dick's Sporting Gods in Columbus at around 12:30 pm on Wednesday afternoon.
Conner was charged with misdemeanor shoplifting for stealing goods worth less than $1,000.
After being taken to jail in her own cruiser, Conner was then booked into the Lowndes County Adult Detention Center.
Conner was given a $862 surety bond and has been placed on administrative leave as the investigation continues.
'We have a job to do and we're held to a higher standard. And the community is just starting to trust us, and to take this gut punch really hurts,' said Daughtry.
'That's why we fulfilled our obligation, not only to the store but to the community.'
The average salary of a police officer in Columbus, Mississippi, is $56,000 a year, according to ZipRecruiter.

lol I knew it. The usual suspect
I did and she is ugly to boot
But the DEI box was checked, so isn’t that really the most important thing?
Don’t waste your time looking. She is protected.
When I read Columbus.....and my 2nd thought was that there is so much white trash in Columbus that you could never be certain.
my Mama says, stupid is as stupid does
Only Dick’s shop at Dick’s
I am conflicted on who is worse—the thief or the anti-gun store.
Stick a fork in Merica, she's done.
Hubba-hubba ...
Hurl ...
This is your country on drugs.

Oh yeah? Well, maybe you should revisit your department's hiring standards, Chief.
Holy Batman!
So? Why should criminals have all the fun?
Throw away your career for a fr’kn pair of shoes..... BRILLIANT!!
Why should she be expected to live up to the same legal and ethical standards as white people? Sounds like she was arrested just for being black..../s
From the looks of that third pic of her in civilian clothes in the article, apparently when she wasn’t walking the streets as a cop, she was walking them in another capacity.
