Nordstrom Worker Accused Of Selling Stolen Items

LINDA WERTHEIMER, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Linda Wertheimer, with the story of a struggling small business. A Nordstrom warehouse worker created a mini-department store in his living room, displaying fancy watches and handbags at very good prices. He even took orders. Police noticed him when he wore a bulky winter coat to work on a hot summer day and made lots of trips to his car. Cops found $40,000 worth of goods. Now the police are out shopping for his customers. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
