CORRECTION: Took Baby Shoplifting
Thursday, August 9, 2012 at 9:36AM 3WC News needs to air a retraction and make corrections to a story that aired on Tuesday of this week regarding two females that were arrested for shoplifting at Walmart. The two women Sarah Shaffner and a 16-year-old were arrested after store employees observed them concealing items in a Walmart bag. 3WC incorrectly stated that Shaffner had a baby with her at the time. Actually, the 8-month-old child belonged to the 16-year-old. The mother of the teen was asked to come and get the baby while the 16-year-old was being questioned by Police. A glass smoking pipe with marijuana residue was found on Shaffner during a search. She was charged with 3 misdemeanor counts of larceny, simple marijuana possession, and possession of drug paraphernalia. According to the Wilkesboro arrest report, the 16-year-old was charged with misdemeanor larceny. 3WC News apologizes for the error.
