Police: Thief forgets phone, returns to store, hits employee

UPPER DARBY, Pa. (WPVI) -- Police say a woman was caught on camera stealing a cell phone from an Upper Darby beauty salon.

Laketa Wanamaker was arrested Monday at Theresa's Nails on South 69th Street.

Investigators say surveillance video shows her taking an employee's iPhone 6 from behind a counter and walking out.

But she left her own cell phone behind and returned fifteen minutes later to get it.

When confronted, police say Wanamaker punched the female employee and knocked her to the ground.

Wanamaker is now facing multiple charges.
