Police officers were dispatched to the Kmart store at Middlesex Ave. last week after receiving a report that a shoplifter had been detained by store loss prevention personnel.

In questioning store employees, it was reported that a woman, Theresa Whalen, 57, had been spotted placing store merchandise into a shopping basket, then attempting to leave the store without paying.

Whalen was detained by store employees until police arrived. She was placed under arrest and charged with larceny over $250.
