A woman was arrested in the alleged theft of diapers and other merchandise at Wal-Mart at Buffalo Ridge Plaza in The Villages.
Kimberly Thieschafer Spivey, 48, of Ocklawaha, was spotted Thursday afternoon pushing a shopping cart out of the store, according to an arrest report from the Sumter County Sheriff’s Office. She appeared to leave behind merchandise in the shrubs. She was approached by a deputy and admitted she had taken diapers from the store.
She had also taken a pair of leggings, a shirt, coax cable, Dove body wash and a 10-pack of Lynx Levelers.
A check revealed three previous convictions for theft. Spivey is currently on probation through 2022. She was booked without bond at the Sumter County Detention Center.
