Police are investigating after two women worked together to steal more than $2,400 in cosmetics from a south end business.

Approximately 1:40 p.m. Tuesday, a woman entered a business at Stone Road Mall and walked around the store, speaking to employees and selecting several items which she placed in a shopping basket. A short time later a second woman entered the store and the pair met up, with the first woman dumping the contents of  her basket into a large tote bag carried by the second woman, who then left the store.

They repeated this process again before both leaving the store together just before 2 p.m.

The first suspect was described as 20-25 years, 5’5”, slim to medium build with black hair with blonde underneath. She was wearing a long tight black dress, black flip flops and a black cross-body bag. The second was a similar age, 5’6”, slim build with curly brown hair. She was wearing a white half-zip top, black biker shorts, white sandals and carrying a large black tote bag.
