'Ms. Corona' suspected of shoplifting at Target

By Billie Owens

Batavia resident Suzanne Corona, 43, is in the security office at Target, being held on suspicion of shoplifting.

Within the past half hour or so, Corona is alleged to have ran from the store, allegedly carrying merchandise some perfume, and yelling "Bruce, Bruce, I'm over here!" before ducking down and supposedly trying to hide among the parked vehicles, according to witness Brandon Maldonado.

After causing a commotion and exiting the store, she was apprehended by Sheriff's Deputy Brian Thompson, who was in the store at the time doing a K-9 demonstration with "Pharoah."

Dispatch was notified that "Ms. Corona" was being detained and an officer sent to take a statement.

Corona's past brushes with local law enforcement include allegations of shopping from a local florist, trashing a lunch buffet and engaging in a sexual encounter at a public park.

(The name of the perfume has not been disclosed.)

UPDATE 10:09 p.m.: It was not perfume as we were originally told, but Corona allegedly attempted to steal two pair of sunglasses, a hair band and a necklace.

Again? Does anyone else think that maybe she's doing this for attention (although negative)..or is it just me?
Or is she really a Kleptomaniac who really needs help?

Is there any mental healthcare help for the indigent of Genesee County at all? If there is, y'all need to make it mandatory for this girl before she sues you for gross negligence. She's crying out, for crying out loud, do something quick before it is too late.

I was thinking:

My Sin, by Lanvin / Addict, by Dior / Tabu, by Dana / Lucky You, by Liz Claiborne / Pure Poison, by Dior / Eau Agent Provocateur, by Agent Provocateur

...perhaps Drakkar Noir for Men, by Guy Laroche (or something equally musky, like Drea de Matteo -- AKA Sopranos' bad gal, Adriana -- likes to wear)

OMG Howard, you buy way too much perfume for your woman. Get Billie a New Braunfels Texas Smoker and you can start smelling the good stuff for a fraction of the current price. Ribs are cheap and fajitas are serious bonding material for a lasting relationship. I would have bolted ten years ago if it wasn't for fajitas and this frickin' eggplant tomato casserole that makes me feel like Anthony Weiner's other brain when I eat it.
The girl can cook and since I'm generally worthless, there you go.
