SALISBURY — Officers arrived at Walmart on Wednesday and arrested a cashier accused of stealing cash.
According to a police report, Walmart Loss Prevention officers called the authorities after they witnessed one of the cashiers, identified as Stephanie Michelle Hicks, taking money from the register.
Hicks, 25, is accused of taking $100 bills and hiding them along with the store’s coupons.
