Brazen dress thief chased down by staff

An alleged dress thief got more than she bargained for when she made off with two formal dresses, only to be chased down by staff from the Alderley store.
Last Friday, a woman came in to buy two dresses at A Formal Affair.
“She was standing at the counter, she actually had the money on her, it was very bizarre … the next minute she’s having a look around, two seconds later she grabs them and out the door she goes,” owner Jane Aboud said.
A number of staff gave chase.
A few tradesman who witnessed what happened came to their rescue as well.
“Very interesting Friday afternoon for us!” she said.
