According to the Alhambra Police Department, officers responded to the store following reports of a theft in progress. When they contacted the suspect, identified as Cheyla Ramirez of Victorville, inside the store, she began walking away while tossing items from her bag.
Police said Ramirez told officers she kept walking because she “didn’t want to go to jail.”
A search of her vehicle reportedly uncovered methamphetamine, a meth pipe in the center console, and merchandise believed to have been taken during her first trip out of the store. Further investigation revealed that Ramirez also had an outstanding warrant.
She was arrested and booked into the Alhambra Police Department Jail on theft and drug-related charges, police said.
