Shoplifting at SMC, 10/09/14 The manager of the Barnes and Noble bookstore at Saint Mary's College was working at a desk in the textbook sales area of the store when a young-ish person expressed an interest in applying for a job with the bookstore. They spent a few minutes discussing the application process. During their chat, security cameras showed that an accomplice in her 40s took advantage of the distraction and hid two accounting text books in her large purse.
