Caught on camera: Two women use children to steal formula off shelves

A brazen and disturbing theft caught on camera.  Surveillance cameras at a Target store in Ventura catch two women using children to steal baby formula off the shelves. The children can be seen taking the cans off the shelves, handing them to the women who hide them in a bag, then they all walk right out of the store. 

This incident happened last weekend at the Target store on South Mills Road.

Authorities are asking that anyone who needs help feeding their children, they should apply for the WIC food and nutrition service, a program serving women, infants and children in need.
