Video leads police to Walmart employee who allegedly stole purse
TUPELO, Miss. (WCBI) – A Tupelo Walmart employee was accused of stealing.
Earlier last week, the Tupelo Police Department served a Lee County Circuit Court capias warrant for grand larceny on 30-year-old Xavier D. Robinson of Baldwyn.
The warrant pertained to a January 2024 report where a victim reported that they accidentally left a purse containing items in a shopping cart at the Walmart on North Gloster Street.
Video surveillance showed Robinson, an employee at the time, stealing the purse a short time later.
Robinson was ordered to be held on a $10,000 bond by Lee County Circuit Court at the time the capias was issued.
The case is awaiting trial in Lee County Circuit Court.
