A woman made off with around $1,450 in fundraiser money intended for a youth football team after she discovered the cash accidentally left in a Walmart shopping cart in Pine Bluff, police said Tuesday.
According to a police report, the woman is seen on surveillance footage arriving in the Wal-Mart parking lot in a white SUV and grabbing a cart where a money bag had been left.
After heading toward the store, the woman is seen returning to the vehicle and driving away.
The money bag was reported missing Monday night by a woman who told police she had brought it with her to buy supplies for a concession stand benefiting her son's peewee football team. The woman told investigators she accidentally left the bag in the cart as she unloaded her items and left, according to a police report.
Authorities were not able to capture the license plate tags of the car driven away by the woman.
Anyone with information is asked to call Pine Bluff detectives at (870) 730-2090.
