Two people were arrested in separate Walmart theft investigations over the weekend in Cape Coral, including a woman accused of trying to leave the store with nearly $780 in unpaid merchandise and a man accused of using discarded receipts to fraudulently return items for cash.<\/p>\n

Yohanka Lopez Borrego, 52, was arrested on Saturday after Walmart Asset Prevention caught her trying to leave the store with $779.88 worth of merchandise, including a bicycle, clothing, accessories, craft items, and health and fitness products, according to the Cape Coral Police Department.<\/p>\n

Police said that when Lopez Borrego was asked about the bike, she said that she intended to take it for a “test ride” around the parking lot before paying for it.<\/p>\n
