Sunglasses stolen from College Mall

Tawanda R. Brown, 40, of Indianapolis was arrested Thursday night on preliminary charges of theft and battery, according to a Bloomington Police ?Department arrest report.

College Mall security was contacted about a possible theft of several pairs of Ray Ban sunglasses from LensCrafters by three black females, Sgt. Steve Kellams said. The security officer located the three women near the food court, and when he attempted to make contact with them, they fled to the parking lot.

Two of the women reportedly got into a gold SUV and drove off. The security officer was reportedly struck by the vehicle, but not seriously injured, as the ?women fled.

The third woman, Brown, ran to Steak ‘n Shake, where the security officer grabbed her by the arm and she pulled away from him, causing a complaint of pain from the security officer.

Brown didn’t have any of the reportedly stolen glasses on her person, and she refused to provide any ?information.
