Moment woman brazenly 'steals' four solar lights from front garden while walking dog
This is the moment a woman was allegedly caught stealing four solar lights from a front garden as she walked her dog.
In footage posted to Facebook, the woman can be seen brazenly walking up the garden path in Buckhurst Hill, Essex, with her German Shepherd.
She then bends down and pulls two of the glowing lights out of the ground and begins to walk back down before the footage cuts off.
The post was made in the Woodford Crime and Surrounding Areas Facebook group on June 18.
Originally, the post read: 'Who is this woman in Buckhurst Hill stealing 4 solar lights ? Kindly return them if it is you and we will remove the post.'
However, it was later updated to say: 'We have been informed Police now have her address.
'Your address is known. Please return the items. This is probably not the first time you have stolen.'
Locals were infuriated by the video and rushed to the comments to give their opinions.
One wrote: 'She's picking them like they were flowers.'
'Why can't people leave people's property alone. Buy your own. Makes me so mad,' another fumed.
Others called to 'make her famous', as someone else raged: 'Oh well she's been caught in the act her face is famous now for everyone to see.'
One woman questioned why someone would take the cheap garden decorations, writing: 'Why? You can get these in Poundland.'
Finding humour in the situation, another local wrote: 'That's what you call light fingers.'
