Cops ID stun-gun shoplifter who abandoned baby


Recommended Posts

The Kenner Police Department says they have now identified a shoplifting suspect who used a stun gun on a mall security guard before fleeing and abandoning an infant.

Investigators say 31-year-old New Orleans resident Brittany G. London is the woman who assaulted a security guard with a stun gun at the Esplanade Mall Saturday night.

According to police, London was in the Gymboree store in the mall with an infant in a stroller. When the guard confronted her after seeing London shoplifting, officials say the woman disabled the guard with a stun gun and fled in a gold Honda Accord, leaving the child behind.

London was not the baby's mother, and the child's mother reportedly contacted authorities to get the child back after Child Protective Services took custody.

The guard was not seriously injured, police say.

London faces charges of Child Desertion, Aggravated Battery and Theft.
