The new security measure prevents shopping carts from leaving the store if they have not been through a checkout line, a loss prevention officer told police.

The suspect, described as a heavy-set white female, fled the scene in a tan Ford Escape with Ohio plate number HGU8198 once confronted, the report says.

A cellphone video of the suspect was sent to police.
