State police identify woman they say stole wallet at Bangor Township Meijer

Hours after her photograph appeared on MLive, a 21-year-old woman police say stole a wallet from a supermarket shopper has been identified. Investigators from the Michigan State Police Bay City Post identified the Bangor Township resident Wednesday night. Troopers were led to the woman after receiving a tip from someone who had seen her photo in an MLive article published Wednesday afternoon. The woman confessed to stealing a man’s wallet around 6 p.m. June 25 at Meijer, 2980 Wilder Road in Bangor Township, said Detective Sgt. Dave Rivard. Coincidentally, a couple of days later, the woman’s own wallet was stolen. Thinking it was karma striking back at her, the woman said she turned the man’s wallet over to police, said Rivard, adding that investigators are trying to figure out where she turned in the wallet.
