Woman Steals Coleus Plants from Antique Mall | Topeka News

Police in Shawnee are hunting a woman caught on camera stealing coleus plants from an antique mall’s planters—this isn’t just any theft; the plants were personally purchased and cared for by an employee, and it’s not the first time she’s struck, having previously bypassed zip ties and even chained planters before digging them out by hand. The bizarre saga has baffled locals, especially since the thief targeted flowers over more urgent needs, and while the first theft went unreported, this latest grab prompted authorities to step in. The investigation is ongoing, and the motive? Still a mystery. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
