Police arrest Walmart worker for giving away store items


LIBERTY — Liberty police arrested Rachel Bowser, 40, of Youngstown on Saturday and charged her with petty theft.

Bowser, who had worked at Walmart on Goldie Road, signed a written statement admitting to overriding sales so that customers could receive products without paying for them.

The loss to Walmart was $429.16.

Liberty officers transferred Bowser to the Youngstown Police Department and she is scheduled to appear in Girard Municipal Court on Tuesday at 9 a.m.
