In just one operation, law enforcement arrested 117 individuals suspected of organized retail theft, seizing $38,000 in stolen goods along with illegal firearms.
California's crackdown on retail crime has included significant funding and new laws, aimed at empowering police and stores to effectively combat theft during the busy holiday season.
With $267 million allocated for combating retail crime, California is ramping up its efforts to tackle increasing theft rates, resulting in multiple successful operations statewide.
New laws effective in 2025 will simplify arresting suspected thieves and allow stores to request restraining orders against repeat offenders, thus enhancing retail safety.
