A woman who appeared to steal by smuggling a box in her pram has received no punishment

Police have responded after footage went viral of a woman scrapping with a SuperCheap Auto employee over an item hidden in her pram.

A woman who appeared in a viral video where she attempted to leave a SuperCheap Auto with a box in a pram has evaded punishment.

The short clip was posted on TikTok and the woman can be seen walking away from the Gold Coast store’s carpark.

The staff member who grappled with her over the pram followed the woman out of sight, while another wearing a ‘Covid safe hygiene marshall’ picked up the box.

The woman has not been punished any further with a Queensland Police spokeswoman confirming to news.com.au that no complaint had been made from the store or staff.

The video was initially shared on the Facebook page, Sydney Name and Shame before it was shared on TikTok where it received millions of views.

Footage of the incident begins with the staff member and the woman holding onto the pram.

“You stole from the store, do you want me to ring the cops?” the clerk can be seen shouting to the customer.

To which the woman replies: “Ring the cops”.

The worker then attempts to grab the pram, as the woman tries to move it out of the way. Throughout the video, she screams: “Let my baby go. Let go. Let go of my baby there”.

“You haven’t even got a baby in there,” the worker responds.

As they grapple for the pram, the employee says: “There’s a box there.”

A box is then knocked out of the pram, after which she says: “You can have the f***ing rotor mate.”

Responding, the employee adds: “And the rest you got there”. The recording then stops shortly afterwards.

It’s also not clear whether the woman actually had a baby underneath the box in her pram.

In the comments, people complimented the Supercheap Auto employee on how he handled the difficult situation.

“Give this employee a reward – don’t chastise him. Great to see some employees still willing to take a stand. Handled it perfectly,” replied one commenter.

“Good on him for having some balls about it. No doubt he’ll get told off over it.....” wrote another commenter.

“This is an everyday experience in retail, she doesn’t have a baby in there but it’s becoming more common for parents using their kids to help shoplift,” wrote a third.
