Thief snatches bras at Victoria's Secret
Thief snatches bras at Victoria's Secret

BELLEVUE, Wash. (Court TV) — Just in time for Valentine's Day (news - web sites), police are hoping to bust a bra thief.

An unknown shoplifter, or shoplifters, reportedly raided a Victoria's Secret shop last weekend and made off with 150 lacy demi-cup and push-up bras worth about $5,400, according to police.

The brazen bra theft took place Sunday at the Bellevue Shopping Center when store employees noticed that storage drawers under the display racks at the front of the store had been looted, police said.

Store managers told police they were very short-staffed that day and that none of the harried help noticed anything suspicious before the theft.

11. GOOD bras are very expensive
sexy and good are even more.


ridiculous I know.. but I spend anywhere from 25-40 for mine which is why I wait for 2 or 1 deals to stock up.

13. Take a look at the price of Wacoal bras
you wanna talk expensive! but they ARE worth more than other bras. I'm just not sure any of 'em are worth what they cost.
