A Florida woman stole 24 Stanley tumbler cups from a hardware store, along with an assortment of champagne, lobster and crab meat from other locations, authorities said Monday. Thefts occurred on Saturday at two Winn-Dixie stores and two Ace Hardware stores in Nassau County – located in northern Florida near Jacksonville, the Nassau County Sheriff's Office said. 'This case demonstrates the importance of vigilance and quick action.
The women were identified as Stacy Sullivan, Kaneki Hickson, Montavia Sullivan and Tracy Sullivan. The alleged thieves stole around $5,000 in merchandise. Deputies first responded to an Ace Hardware store where employees said four suspects stole 24 Stanley cups by hiding them under their shirts and in their bags. The steel tumblers have become immensely popular in recent months after being featured on social media. The group then left in a silver Chevy Malibu.
All four face charges of felony grand theft and conspiracy to commit retail theft.
