Employee involved in retail theft ring that stole $11,000 from Clinton outlet store

CLINTON–Police are trying to find a group responsible for stealing $11,000 in merchandise from a store at Clinton Crossing.

A group that was connected to an employee at the POLO outlet in the mall was able to steal the merchandise between January and March 2016. The scam worked by having the employee, who was a cashier, void large transactions but still place the merchandise in shopping bags for the customers. The customers were involved in the scam, and left with the stolen merchandise.

The same “customers” were involved during all the transactions.

The employee at POLO admitted to the scam, but she refuses to name the other suspects. Police are not yet naming her or saying if she’s been charged.

The suspects may be from the New London area. If you have information please call Clinton Police at 860-669-0451 or email gmatakaetis@clintonct.org.
