23-year-old Anitra Turner was caught shoplifting at Five Below on Wilma Rudolph Boulevard on October 6th, 2023. Officers arrived and made contact with the store’s loss prevention worker. They stated that a black female had entered the store and concealed two phone cases and a screen protector in her purse. The female was then observed exiting the store and leaving in a blue Toyota SUV. The loss prevention employee informed officers that they saw the female signing a petition outside the store for registering to vote in Tennessee. The black female wrote her name down as Anitra Turner. Officers later met with Turner’s mother, Tina Velazquez, after locating the Toyota SUV at her Dawn Ridge Court residence. While officers spoke with Velazquez, she confirmed that the woman in the video was Turner. Turner was later found and served her criminal warrant for theft of property on August 17th.
