The Mentor Police Department is reporting that two women were caught on camera stealing nearly 1,000 pairs of underwear from the Great Lakes Mall Victoria’s Secret store, an estimated $5,700 loss.

Taking place Feb. 3, the pair was filmed grabbing and stuffing huge handfuls of undies into large plastic shopping bags, all while, presumably, trying not to attract attention.

It’s yet unclear why the women would need that many pairs of panties, but police are asking for the public’s help in catching the culprits.

Anyone with info regarding the incident is asked to contact Officer Balongie at 440-205-3293, or reach out directly to the Mentor Police Department on Facebook.

  1. Another panty story? How old are you folks? Giggling and smirking over women’s underwear?
    What is this jones you folks have for News of The Weird? Slow news day, or what?

  2. 1000 pair, 5700 dollar loss. Now I don’t usually buy my panties there but I gotta think they are way more than 5.70.

  5. Serious question: you now have 1000 pair of panties valued at $5.70 each. WTF do you do with them? Are people in the market for lifted cheapo undies you can sell to? Even if you tell me you’re selling them on ebay, what are you going to get, 50 cents a pair at the most?

  9. Perhaps they were donating them to the panty bank for needy folk with old underwear. Man does not live by break alone. And isnt it worth going to hell for $5.70 panties?
