When Sallimo and two other officers were called to the store at 4056 N. Armenia Ave. about 10 a.m. on July 21, the woman told them she had just been evicted and was living with friends.

It also appeared she took care of her daughters, who were about 1 and 3 years old, because their clothes were clean and their hair was well-groomed, Sallimo said.

Officers noticed the woman tried to take only baby products—no steaks, beer or other extravagant items—factors that Sallimo said made him want to help her.

Because of the woman's circumstances, Sweetbay did not to press charges, spokeswoman Nicole LeBeau said.

I think Sweetbay will be glad they did not press charges. The good publicity about this story will be a benefit to them, by an increase in shoppers.
