Woman Busted After Purse With Meth Found At Target

Woman Left Purse Behind After Allegedly Writing Bad Check

Reporting

NATOMAS (CBS13) ― A woman was arrested after allegedly writing a bad check at Target, then leaving a purse full of meth behind.

A surveillance camera was hovering right over Kristina Parker while she was in line at Target on a day she would probably rather forget. In all likelihood parker would never have been picked up if it wasn't for her purse.

"Nine times out of ten we don't catch up to these people," said Konrad Von Schoech of the Sacramento Police.

Kristina allegedly made two big mistakes: She pulled her checkbook out of her purse and put the purse back into the shopping cart. When the check wasn't accepted, she took off.

What she didn't realize is what she left behind, and security guards combed through her purse.

"Target security personnel go through the wallet, and they found a large amount of drugs in there," said Schoech. "That's indicative of drug sales so they called us."

When police arrived on scene, they found Parker, who returned for her purse. It was too late, and she was busted.
