A 29-year-old woman was arrested after she allegedly switched out her bra and panties for new ones at Belk in The Villages.

Angela Nicole Bell of Fruitland Park entered the store at La Plaza Grande shopping center Saturday afternoon and began looking at merchandise that did not have security tags, according to an arrest report from the Lady Lake Police Department. She then went into a fitting room where she made the switch and attempted to leave the store without paying for the items. A loss prevention officer tried to stop her, but she reportedly flew into a rage and began swinging her arms at him.

This was her third arrest on a charge of petit theft. She was also charged with resisting a merchant.

She was booked at the Lake County Jail on $10,000 bond.
