Caught on Video: Woman Barrels Car Though Store to Shoplift

A female thief drove to a Home Depot in Alabama — and then barreled her car straight through its doors and down the aisles to swipe goods before zooming off again, shocking video shows.

The shoplifter-on-wheels used her black 2000 Pontiac Sunfire to commit her crime around 9 AM at the store in Trussville, northeast of Birmingham, on Friday, cops told the Trussville Tribune.
