Police Pull Woman Off Her Flight After She Stole Prada Sunglasses

Incident Summary

Police responded to Sunglass Hut at Nashville International Airport after an employee reported that a woman had taken Prada sunglasses valued at $578. The employee said the incident occurred around 2:10–2:20 and described the woman and her clothing to officers. When police located her near gate D10, she had already boarded her flight.

Officers asked the woman about the sunglasses. She initially denied having them, then said they were in her backpack and handed them over, saying she had not meant to take them.

Sunglass Hut wanted to prosecute. Police explained that the alleged theft was a misdemeanor because the item was valued under $1,000. They issued her a citation rather than taking her into custody. She agreed to appear in court on February 19 between 9 and 11 a.m. The subtitles do not report the outcome of the case.
