Police say they charged a Salisbury woman with taking more than $700 worth of perfume from a local pharmacy and returning two days later, taking some facial cream.

Salisbury Police charged Dawn Tucker Stratton, 57, of the 4100 block of Goodman Lake Road, with resist, obstruct, delay an officer, shoplifting and concealment of merchandise, all of which are misdemeanors.

An officer went to CVS Pharmacy in the 1700 block of East Innes Street on Friday night where officials there said a woman was caught on camera taking 16 bottles of perfume on Sept. 10. On Friday, she was seen taking $35.99 worth of Olay facial cream.

Authorities say when officers arrived, Stratton was already detained and denied taking the items. In fact, a report said Stratton told officials they were mistaken and it was her daughter on a store surveillance camera.

According to the store camera the woman was seen pushing aside the lock and getting into the perfume case. She slipped 16 bottles inside her purse and was in and out of the store in six minutes. Store officials recognized her the second time, a report said.

She has since been released from the Rowan County Detention Center under a $1,000 secured bond.
