A 33-year-old woman faces multiple theft charges after police allege she shoplifted from the same Thunder Bay business 30 times this year.

On July 7, officers with the Thunder Bay Police Service responded to a reported theft at a business in the 300 block of Main Street.

Authorities located a suspect matching the description nearby and made an arrest.

“The female suspect was also believed to have been involved in a series of thefts from the same business dating back to January,” police said in a news release.

The accused was subsequently charged with 30 counts of theft and released following a court appearance on Tuesday.
