Madison WI March 13 2020 An East Towne Mall security guard was punched in the face repeatedly Tuesday by a thief who attempted to leave the mall with two bags full of stolen goods, Madison police reported.
The security guard struggled with the thief, after confronting her about the goods, and called for help and answered by a second security guard. The second security guard chased the thief, who had broken free from the struggle with the first security guard, police spokesman Joel DeSpain said in a statement.
The thief tripped and fell, which allowed the second security guard to recover the stolen merchandise, but the security guard was slapped in the face by the thief while doing so, DeSpain said.
The thief left the mall empty handed but officers hope to use security footage to identify and arrest her, DeSpain said.
