Lacey Woman Accused of Carrying Fake Baby to Steal Yogurt at Aldi

Lacey Woman Accused of Carrying Fake Baby to Steal Yogurt at Aldi

LACEY-People are sometimes accused of doing things they didn’t do, but an incident in Lacey Township at the Aldi supermarket took the concept to a whole new level.

Patricia Larkin was carrying her baby through the store and when she checked out, a woman behind her told the cashier that Larkin’s baby was a fake…a front for her illegal yogurt smuggling operation she has been carrying out in a clandestine manner across the store that day.

The problem?

Larkin’s baby is real and she wasn’t in the business of jamming 25 cent yogurts from Aldi into a fake baby to smuggle them out of the store.  On top of that, she’s even lactose intolerant, so it wouldn’t have been such a rewarding caper even if she did pull it off.

Foiled by the nosey patron in line behind her, she reported her failed plot to the Lacey chatter Facebook page where residents got a rise out of the incident…and her cute REAL baby.
