- So we've got someone who stole some shoes from Shoe Carnival.
They're outside sitting on the bench.
I guess the taxi is just now pulling up to get him.
So we're going to try and get up here and catch up to him.
[music playing]
[beep]
[inaudible] I think that might be them.
Hold on.
Hey, y'all come here.
Come here.
Don't-- hey, hey, hey.
Come here.
Hey, you better stop!
Hey, stop right now.
I'm going to tackle both of you.
Stop right now. Stop right now!
- [inaudible]
- Come here. Come here.
- All right. All right.
- Come here. Come here.
- Dang, what we did? What [inaudible]?
- Hey, why do you think-- why do you think I'm here right now?
- Because you're chasing us.
- Why'd you drop the shoes?
What's in that bag? - What shoes?
- With the shoes y'all just stole from Carnival.
Come on, now.
Come on. - [inaudible]
- We going to talk a little bit right here.
Come on. - We ain't got no slides.
- Come on. Come on.
- [inaudible]
- Hold on.
You two come on over here too.
Were y'all with him?
We are going to have a talk.
Come on.
Have a seat right here.
- [inaudible]
- Stand right over here.
Don't run.
How old are you?
- 14. - 14?
- Yes, sir.
- How old are you?
- 15.
- 15. How old are you?
- 18.
- And she the oldest.
- How old are you? 16?
- 16. - Y'all got some IDs on you?
You can put all your stuff down.
Put everything down.
- We-- we only got us [inaudible]..
- Hey, I'm trying to be nice to y'all, all right?
Set everything down. - You got your school ID?
- Yeah.
- Set everything down, all right?
So where's-- where's the Shoe Carnival shoes at?
- [inaudible]
- And be honest with me.
I'm going to be honest with-- hey, honesty goes a long way.
So if y'all go honest with me, and I talk--
and I talk to them, we try to work some out, all right?
- Here you go. - These are the ones you took?
- Yes, sir.
- All right.
Hey, you didn't take anything inside there?
- [inaudible] - No.
- No.
- Because we got called about someone in a white sweater too?
So if I go and look at some cameras, and I see you grab--
I ain't going to see you done grabbed nothing?
- Uh-uh.
- All right, well, grab your stuff.
We're going to go walk down here back to Shoe Carnival.
All right, stay together right here.
I swear, If one of y'all run, I'm going to run you down,
and I'm going to put you in the back of my patrol car,
all right?
- I'm not going to run.
- All right, so stay here with us deputy.
Stay with this-- - [inaudible]
- All right. Get all their information.
- Tell me your last name first.
Don't lie to me now.
- [inaudible] - All right.
- The girl in the white Crocs too.
- The girl in the white Crocs too?
Which one is that?
- Yeah, she-- the one with the white shirt on.
- OK, what else--
this and the white Crocs? - That's it.
These are my three items here.
- Give me the white Crocs.
Give me the white Crocs. - [inaudible]
- Don't run.
Are you-- are you going to run?
- [inaudible]
- Why are you talk-- come on-- why are you make--
whey are you making this harder? - Sir, [inaudible].
- You know what I'm saying? - Do you have a phone number?
- I'm going to try and help you out.
But y'all keep making this harder and harder.
The Shoe Carnival just wants them placed on trespass notice
for the items they took.
But, now, we're finding out from the local security
for Sandhills that they might have stolen some stuff
or some other stores.
- So it looks like a bunch of stuff
has been stolen from like three or four different stores.
Right now, none of them want to prosecute.
We'll just place them on trespass.
But you can even see in this T-shirt here how they ripped
the--
the sensor off that normally avoids detection
going through the store.
So there's nothing much we can do if they don't want
to prosecute.
Now we're just looking to try and get their parents here.
- Is there anything else y'all have not paid for?
For what?
- These.
- The ones that are on her feet.
- Yeah.
- There's real repercussions that what
you guys did because I'm about to just take all this stuff.
And we're about to start charging people and take
y'all up to headquarters. - [inaudible]
- And that just solves everything.
But if y'all keep lying to me like--
- I'm not lying [inaudible].
- Hey, listen to me.
Listen to me one time.
Y'all think this is a big joke.
- Can I say something?
- Y'all-- now hold on, let me say something, all right?
I've been listening to you-- - [inaudible]
- I understand.
But y'all keep joking around like you can do all this stuff
and there ain't no-- there ain't no repercussions.
Somebody is going to come take you.
You guys can go on your likely way.
I could go over there right now and tell them,
tell them what's going on, saying y'all joking out here,
thinking it ain't no big deal and ask them if they want
to press charges.
And they could probably say, yeah.
Then we take all you guys, go up to headquarters,
sit down, and talk to our juvenile investigator.
And it gets drawn way out.
And if they want to house you, then you
get down to [inaudible] and go the left side
and sit there for a little while.
Then they take you out to DJJ.
We try to cut them as much breaks as we can,
just because they're 13, 14 years old.
And sometimes you run out of breaks.
And, hopefully, they can find somebody that has a program
to get them on the right path instead of stealing stuff
from the stores when they're supposed to be in school.
