Wednesday afternoon, Jessica Jeanice Johnson and Tiffany Tichera Lee went on a shopping spree in Sears at University Mall using a stolen credit card, deputies say.

Johnson, 20, and Lee, 18, spent $3,680.08, according to a report.

The next day, deputies say, they returned to the Sears with a friend, Tilliasha Philadelphia Williams, 17, and went on another shopping spree, spending $1,691.53 and using the same stolen credit card.

This time they were caught, deputies said.

Johnson, of 13747 Susan Kay Drive, Tampa, and Lee, of 10613 Altman St., Tampa, both were charged with 10 counts of uttering a forged instrument, 10 counts of fraudulent use of a credit card, five counts of grand theft – all felonies – and five counts of petty theft, a misdemeanor.

An arrest affidavit states that Williams was arrested and charged with a felony, but no further details were available because she is a minor.

Johnson and Lee were taken to Orient Road Jail. Bail for both was set at $51,250 bail.
