Wesley Chapel - Two women engaged in some after-Christmas shoplifting Friday at the Shops at Wiregrass mall, the Pasco County Sheriff's Office said.

Deputies arrested Shannon Suzanne Roughgarden, 24, of 7810 Land O' Lakes Blvd., and Barbara-Jean Prieto, 22, of 8075 Tiger Cove, Naples, about 3:45 p.m. near Macy's on suspicion of theft.

Deputies said Macy's in-store security saw Roughgarden and Prieto place a variety of clothing in shopping bags, a diaper bag and a purse. The women were stopped shortly after they left the store's south entrance, which leads into the rest of the mall, deputies said.

Between them, Roughgarden and Prieto had more $1,026 in merchandise in their bags, deputies said.

Both women were later released on $2,000 bond from the Land O' Lakes Jail.
