A New York man has been charged with stealing merchandise from the Gap store at South Shore Plaza.
Police said Richard A. Arango, 21, was arrested Wednesday afternoon after store security personnel at Abercrombie & Fitch spotted him and another man run out of the Gap with bags full of merchandise.
The security officer and another from the Hollister & Co. store chased the two men into the parking garage, where they caught Arango, police said.
The other man escaped.
While trying to flee, one of the men threw a bag of clothes at the security officers.
Police said Arango had two bags lined with duct tape, commonly referred to as “booster bags” because they are used by professional shoplifters to compromise security sensors.
The bags were stuffed with clothes valued at more than $1,000, police said.
