CHESTERFIELD, Mo. – A 19-year-old repeat shoplifting suspect has police shaking their heads. FOX 2 reported on his arrest two days ago, after a police chase and crash. Now he’s been arrested again, less than a mile from the police department, about 30 minutes after getting out of jail.
Police responded to a shoplifting call at the Macy’s at Chesterfield Mall. When officers arrived saw who the suspect was, they couldn’t believe it. It was Christopher Carter, 19, of St. Louis. He was still banged up from allegedly crashing in a stolen pickup a day earlier.
Carter was a passenger in the truck when it crashed through a fence and into a boat and camper at a storage business in the Chesterfield Valley, Monday afternoon, police said. He and three others were allegedly trying to get away after shoplifting from an outlet mall. The pickup had been stolen from Clayton earlier that morning.
“We got a call for stealing from the polo store at the Taubman Outlets,” said Sgt. Keith Rider of the Chesterfield Police Department. “When our officers approached the vehicle the suspects were in, the vehicle took off at a high rate of speed onto the levee trail. They ended up crashing. The subjects got out of the vehicle and ran.”
Carter was charged with municipal counts of stealing, resisting arrest, and marijuana possession, spent the night in jail, and was released around 1:15 pm the next afternoon, police said.
The shoplifting call at the mall came about a half-hour later; less than a mile from the police department; an estimated 27-minute walk. As far as police know, no one was there to pick up Carter when he got out of jail. They believe he walked there.
You’d think Carter would be the last person would find when responding to the shoplifting call.
“I would think so but you can’t make this stuff up,” Sgt. Rider said. “When our officers arrived they realized it was the same subject we just released just a little more than 30 minutes before.”
Carter now faces another count of misdemeanor stealing. He’s in the St. Louis county jail with a $500 bond pending an appearance in Chesterfield Municipal Court.

ST. LOUIS - The family of Ethan Sandhu hopes an increase in a reward through CrimeStoppers will lead to an arrest in the shooting death of the 18-year-old from Olivette.  
The recent graduate of Ladue High School was shot and killed June 2 in the St. Louis Place neighborhood of north St. Louis. 
MADISON COUNTY, Ill. - The sheriff's department in Madison County is using a P.I.N. Sticker Program (potentially impaired or non-verbal person) to let law enforcement, firefighters and EMS partners know that someone may have a communication barrier, and if authorities try to talk with them, they may be non-verbal.
 "Any tool that we can have in our arsenal that allows us to seamlessly communicate effectively, especially in times of crisis, going into an incident or a situation, already knowing that there's a communication barrier, we can prepare for that, we can prepare ourselves to effectively communicate," Madison County Sheriff's Department Capt. Kristopher Tharp said.
Those with communication barriers are asked to pick up a free sticker and place it on the back window of their car and on their front door, or front window glass.
Residents with communication barriers or their caretakers can get a free sticker at Madison County Sheriff's Office, TRIAD, or St. John's Community Care, which helped fund the project.
The stickers are color-coded, but only police officers and first responders know what each color represents.
"We aren't releasing what the colors represent," Tharp said. "The only ones that know that are the participants and the first responders, that to ensure that we don't enhance the participants' vulnerability to victimization."
ST. CHARLES, Mo. - A little after midnight on June 26, two brothers were rescued by St. Charles County first responders from a fire in their home at 915 Parkcrest Drive. 
Smoke started filling the room when the 14-year-old teen started to smell smoke and noticed it was filling the home. His 8-year-old brother was upstairs sleeping.
He ran to wake him, but the smoke became too much for them to exit through the first level. 
The St. Charles Fire Department said the boys were home alone and were unable to release their names to the public. 
An initial report said a rug in the downstairs bathroom caught on fire from an undetermined source. St. Charles County Police Officers Rujawitz, Hairston, O’Brien, Maxwell, and Santoni were the first to arrive on the scene and assist EMS and firemen in the rescue.

THIEF: A 36-year-old man arrested for shop theft at an Hougang supermarket in 2013. LIANHE WANBAO FILE PHOTO
In six months of shoplifting, he amassed a booty of products, such as tidbits and pens, as well as things he did not need.
One day, the teenager, who was then in his school uniform, was caught by a sharp-eyed security guard while trying to steal a set of headphones.
His reaction to being apprehended was not fear of what would happen to him for breaking the law.
Instead, he was overcome by extreme embarrassment.
He knew that his friends were going to tease him - not for being a thief, but for getting caught.
His friends were also shoplifters and he was the first among them to be nabbed.
Now 19 and studying in a polytechnic, Sam, who spoke to The New Paper on condition of anonymity, said that among shoplifters, a culture of peer pressure is pervasive and friends would egg each other on to do it, almost like a rite of manhood.
So they end up shoplifting just to show off to their peers and to feel the thrill of getting away with committing an offence.
When he was in Secondary Two, Sam started by stealing tidbits from a neighbourhood provision shop before progressing to pocketing pens and wallets from stationery shops.
"I got more motivated every time I succeeded," he told TNP.
"I just did it for fun and didn't even need most of the things I stole. Most of the time, I would give the stolen items to my friends."
But Sam would soon find out that there was a price to pay for breaking the law, with fear setting in after he was hauled to a police station for questioning.
"I was very, very scared because I was held in the police station for hours," he said.
As a youth offender of a minor offence, Sam was put on six months' probation.
He also had to attend a mandated guidance programme.
Those who complete the programme will be let off with a police caution instead of facing a charge.
Sam, who has two older siblings, said he felt he was lucky because getting caught was a major wake-up call.
His studies improved after his parents started making sure he went home straight after school.
His father works in construction and his mother in administration
His friends also stopped shoplifting after they saw what happened to him.
Sam still bears the burden of what he did.
When he applies for a part-time job, he has to mention his brush with the law in the application form.
He said: "I'll be honest and tell them that it happened when I was younger and that I've changed."
Sam, who now counsels at-risk teens at a youth centre, said: "I would tell them to consider how they would feel if someone stole from them.
"There is more to life than just taking stuff for free. Besides, it could affect your future."
Young shoplifters made front-page news recently after two Singaporean teenage girls were caught shoplifting Bangkok, and then made light of it.
In Singapore, theft from shops has been the top crime among those aged seven to 19 in the past three years. (See report on next page.)
If caught, young offenders, like Sam, have to go through a guidance programme instead of facing a charge.
But counsellors warned that petty theft should not be considered a "small crime" and should be nipped in the bud.
They cited peer pressure, parental neglect, and a cry for attention as possible reasons that youngsters shoplift.
Psychologist Frances Yeo, who practises at Thomson Medical Centre, said that when she previously worked with the Singapore Prison Service, she noticed that most offenders started with crimes such as stealing.
She added: "They will eventually end up with a long page of more serious offences, such as cheating."
Mr Daniel Ong, head of youth services at Care Corner Singapore, said that shoplifting among the young is a real concern.
He said: "Bad habits always start from small (actions). If the youngsters don't get caught, it could lead to a spiral of crime and the effects can be devastating."
Among other programmes, Care Corner has a Theft Intervention Programme and a specially tailored character and leadership programme called Youth Rangers, aimed at transforming the lives of at-risk young people.
Mr Ong said: "We will teach them values such as respect, integrity and compassion as well as building and developing leadership skills and traits.
"They will learn that every choice they make will have a consequence, whether good or bad, and (their crimes) could destroy their future."
I would tell them to consider how they would feel if someone stole from them. There is more to life than just taking stuff for free. Besides, it could affect your future.
I just did it for fun and didn't even need most of the things I stole. Most of the time, I would give the stolen items to my friends.
A shop selling colourful and affordable accessories in Cathay Cineleisure Orchard attracts teenagers looking to steal.
Owner Tommy Tan said that he has seen an average of three to five shoplifters daily for the past five years.
Mr Tan, who sells mobile phone accessories, bags, and hair and beauty accessories, said he and his staff are constantly looking out for thieves.
He said: "They will keep looking at us - that's one giveaway. Usually, my staff will just warn the shoplifters and tell them to put the items back."
Mr Brandon Wong, 35, who runs a store selling bags, toys and stickers at *Scape, has seen more than five shoplifting cases in the past three years.
He said: "I think there is a culture where students are stealing things for fun. The youngsters will come in groups of two or three, and dare each other (to steal)."
After he installed closed-circuit TV (CCTV) cameras, he caught a few shoplifters red-handed, and handed themover to the police.
"It may be just a few dollars, but if we let them off, it will become a habit," Mr Wong added.
Singapore's retailers lost about $200 million to theft in 2010, according to the Global Retail Theft Barometer. More than half of it was from customer theft.
Other factors included employer theft and internal errors.
To compensate for the losses, consumers ended up paying higher prices - an average of $66.11 per person - said the study.
Shoplifters often target busy periods such as Christmas and the Great Singapore Sale (GSS), said retailers.
In conjunction with GSS this year, the Orchard Neighbourhood Police Centre launched a safe shopping campaign and retail watch group with the Singapore Retailers Association and Orchard Road Business Association.
It is not just retailers in the major shopping precincts like Orchard Road which are affected by shop theft.
Madam Phang, who is in her 50s and sells household items at a Pasir Ris neighbourhood shop, said that small items such as toys are usually favoured by young shoplifters.
"I will inform their parents if I know them, or call up their schools," she said.
"It's usually a small item, so I try to give them a chance instead of going to the police."
Number of shop theft cases last year. This is the top offence among those aged seven to 19. The second-highest was wilful trespass, with 196 cases.
