A pair of bandits on the run are apparently a mother-daughter team whose targets have been hair salons and wig stores. Their scores? Wigs and hair extensions. Considering one salon owner says she caught them stealing about $40 worth of products, the “savings” hardly seem worth the effort. It’s not like they were stealing hair shears, which usually cost much more!
Three woman entered Wigs and Beauty Supply in Fort Worth police said. One woman went to the back of the store and another woman served as a lookout at the front, which a third woman walked along the wig aisles.
The 47-year-old store owner watched the third woman take items off the shelf and put them in a purse, and when he told her to put the items back, she assaulted him! Police say the man was grabbed by the throat and pushed against a wall. She reached into her waistband as if she had a weapon, police said.
One of the other women yelled, “Mom, let’s go!”
All three women fled into a waiting minivan with two men in the front seat. No one was seriously hurt.
Like another weird hair robbery recently, it seems like a lot of work for a few hair extensions.
