An employee of a senior residence in Tarn allegedly robbed tenants

A 54-year-old woman is suspected of having stolen 178 objects belonging to tenants of a senior residence in Castres (Tarn) in which she worked.

The damage was estimated at 100,000 euros.

Placed in police custody and then released during the investigation, the employee was laid off by her employer.

Filmed in flight

The suspect, who ended up recognizing the facts, was identified thanks to the grandson of one of the victims, says

.

His grandmother constantly complaining about the disappearance of objects, he had installed a camera in the accommodation.

Noting one day that the door to his 95-year-old grandmother's bedroom had been opened in their absence, he had viewed the images.

He then saw the employee, wearing latex gloves, steal two jars of Dior cream.

More than 150 stolen objects were found by the police at the home of the fifty-year-old who should soon be dismissed from the senior residence.

The police investigation is still ongoing.
