"Something goes out of here
everyday," said Tammye Ann.

, Store in the center.
"These people (the shoplifters)
are good. They are just walking
the stuff away. And many of
them are the regular customers
we know."
The amount of missing merchandise
got so high at the High
Fashion clothing store that the
manager, 11 Yu, decided to attach
theft detectors to all the clothes:
Apparently, the measure worked.

44It's not as bad as it was
before we got the alarms on the
clothes," Yu said. "Now it's
almost nothing."
Meanwhile, Russell Sledge said
shoplifting at 47th Pier is almost
non-existent because of the type
of store his is.
44It's kinda hard to get a fish
out of the case without us seeing
it," Sledge said.
In an effort to combat shoplifting,
the Food Lion grocery store
recently installed a security
system that is activated whenever
an item that has not been paid for
leaves the store. The new system,
located only in theand

happens at East Winston.

But Ray and others agree that
it's not everybody that's stealing;
most customers, they say, are
honest.
"This is just a minute group of
people," Ray said. "Ninety-nine
percent of the people who come
in here are honest. But it's that
one percent that makes it hard
for everybody."
The only way to combat the
problem, said Ray, is, first, to
educate the community about the
shoplifting problems, and, sedcond^ajejoucourage
the public to
help- wage ?hc battle against ~
shoplifting.
"If the public sees somebody
stealing, they are going to have to
get more involved." Ray said.
"Or they will have to pay the
price -- higher prices."
