A pair of Fort Madison women have been accused of stealing clothing and toys from two Coralville department stores.
According to two Coralville police complaints, Nancy Row, 29, and Misty Brown, 31, both of 4635 J Ave. Apt. A1, were charged Dec. 7 with stealing from the Coral Ridge Mall Scheels and JC Penney stores.
At 5 p.m. that evening, Row and Brown allegedly walked out of Scheels with the seven pairs, valued at $701.98. Just a few minutes earlier, both women allegedly took many toys from the nearby JC Penney store with a total value of $427.00, the complaints said. As a result, the mall suffered a loss of $1,128.98.
Second-degree theft valued at more than $1,000 is a Class-D felony punishable up to five years in prison with a maximum fine of $7,500.
