Two charged after $10K theft spree at Halifax-area Sephora stores

A man and a woman are facing charges after Halifax Regional Police (HRP) say they stole more than $10,000 worth of products from multiple Sephora stores over a two-day period.

Officers say the first theft took place at the Mic Mac Mall location on July 19. The following day, the suspects allegedly targeted Sephora stores in Dartmouth Crossing and the Halifax Shopping Centre.

At approximately 4 p.m. on July 20, mall security contacted HRP after detaining the pair for theft. During the investigation, officers linked them to the other Sephora thefts.

The 23-year-old man and 22-year-old woman are scheduled to appear in Halifax provincial court at a later date to face charges.
