According to a police report, Stone concealed clothing inside her purse and went into the bathroom. Employees reported finding five tags in the trash valued at just over $1,000.

An officer said Stone told him she did not realize what she was doing because she was under the influence of her prescribed marijuana.

Stone was booked into the Palm Beach County jail and has since been released.
