Woman admits stealing 750 pounds of clothing

Thu, 02 Jul 2015

A Pulrose woman has pleaded guilty to stealing almost £750 worth of clothes from Tynwald Mills.

28-year-old Tara Cowell appeared at Douglas Courthouse earlier this week where she admitted one charge of theft.

On April 13th Cowell, along with her friend Natalie Bayle, went to the Mill Store - the pair gathered the items and walked out of the delicatessen exit.

Members of the public saw the women carrying the items on the hangers and alerted shop staff who then called the police - the duo was later arrested.

Bayle was sentenced for the offence last week receiving 100 hours of community service - social enquiry reports have been requested before Cowell is sentenced on July 28th.
