I live in California.
I was at one of the department stores picked out one of the jeans (about 200$) and noticed that the security tag wasn't secured tight. it was loose enough for me to force it out. i was able to do it and when i walked out of the store i was confronted with undercover guards. as soon as i noticed i was busted i just took of and ran away. i am sure that i was being recorded on the video tapes. I ran to my car and i made sure nobody was running after me. but as i got away in my car i think that somebody saw my license plate. if i receive a letter or something, what should i do? by the way, when i ran away, i threw the jeans down so is this considered attempted shoplifting? will the store even investigate in this situation to find me?
