Sheriff's Office spokesman Bill Kennedy said deputies went to Kohl’s in Stafford Marketplace about 4:06 p.m. Friday in response to a reported theft in progress.
A loss prevention officer had seen a woman stuffing clothes into a large black purse.
The store employee confronted the woman in the parking lot and the suspect punched her in the mouth, Kennedy said.
Kennedy said the suspect, who was carrying a little boy who appeared to be about 2, then kicked off her shoes and ran off with the child.
The purse with the stolen items was recovered a short time later behind a trash can, but there was no information in the purse that identified the suspect.
She was described as a white woman in her early 20s, 5 feet 1 to 5 feet 5 inches tall and 120 pounds. She had blonde hair in the front and black hair in the back, police said, and was wearing a purple shirt and jeans.
Anyone with information about the woman is asked to call the Sheriff’s Office at 658-4400 or Crime Solvers at 659-2020.
