One of the women had a $10,000 warrant out for her arrest.

An underwear thief and her lookout buddy were busted outside of Super K Mart around 1:30 p.m. on Nov. 12., according to police.

Cops say one of the women was caught stealing just shy of $100 worth of women’s underwear in her purse while the other stayed on watch and advised her accomplice of other items to steal.

When police ran both women’s information, the lookout partner was found to have a $10,000 warrant out for her arrest from the Oak Forest Police Department. She was handed over to Oak Forest police while her thief partner was issued a retail theft citation.
