Could a casual shopping trip to Costco land you in jail? That’s precisely what happened to two individuals in Sacramento this past Thursday afternoon. Steven Green, 48, and Genitha Batiste, 45, reportedly entered a South Sacramento Costco, where they brazenly concealed multiple bottles of liquor inside a bag. Rather than proceeding to a checkout lane, they bypassed all points of sale, attempting to make a clean getaway. However, their pilfering was quickly noticed by alert loss prevention officers. When confronted, Green allegedly turned verbally aggressive, reportedly causing employees to fear for their safety, adding a dramatic twist to the incident. Consequently, the duo fled the scene in a vehicle, sparking a brief pursuit. Fortunately, deputies from the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office swiftly located and apprehended them nearby. Both suspects were arrested and booked into the Sacramento County Main Jail for alleged theft, with the stolen alcohol successfully recovered from their vehicle.
