Fed's bust store owner and two others for buying and reselling black-market liquor, baby formula, and untaxed cigarettes in Vegas and running a retail theft ring. Sunny Ramo, who owns a c-store in North Vegas, is accused of buying bottles of liquor and baby formula that he believed had been stolen from grocery stores in the Las Vegas area and purchasing cigarettes that hadn't been taxed by the state. Authorities say he bought the items from undercover police and an ATF agent. They had been investigating him because he was recruiting kids to steal items for his store. "In this particular case, what made this operation so heinous is the suspects involved in this were recruiting young men and young women, basically children, to steal from (other stores) and bring in the product," Cassell said. "That's unacceptable." (Source lasvegassun.com) (Source 8newsnow.com)

Police bust 5 men for running a bogus check-cashing ring targeting Publix stores throughout Florida
The suspects admitted to cashing six counterfeit checks totaling $2,900 at Publix Super Market stores on the same day last week, according to the Hernando County Sheriff’s Office. It was later learned alleged ringleader Leon “Slim” Stovall was under a separate investigation by state police for "several hundred" fake check cashing cases at Publix stores throughout the Southeast, causing the Lakeland, Fla.-based retailer a "substantial loss." Publix spokeswoman Shannon Patten said the Lakeland-based company has been working on the case with law enforcement for more than a year. Patten said the bogus checks totaled "hundreds of thousands of dollars." (Source supermarketnews.com) (Source tampabay.com)

"Organized group of shoplifters" stole eight cell phones from Radio Shack in Richmond Centre, Ky., and may be connected to a similar shoplifting spree in Georgetown. Police say that a group of seven to eight men and women entered the store and spread out into different areas. "A member of the group distracted employees while the remainder of the group examined other items in the store," Brock said. "One of the males then purchased a Blue Tooth headset and the group left the store and departed in three vehicles." It later was learned that the Blue Tooth headset purchased at the Richmond store had been returned to the Radio Shack store in Georgetown for a refund. (Source lex18.com)
