Sonora, CA….On Monday afternoon, Tuolumne County Sheriff’s Deputies responded to Kohl’s in the Junction Shopping Center in Sonora for a sighting of a wanted theft suspect. A social media post shared from a business in Oakdale of a woman stealing a wallet and cell phone, went viral after the theft occurred around 11 AM on Monday morning. When deputies arrived at Kohl’s they were directed to a woman matching the description of the suspect seen on the video responsible for the theft.

24-year-old Ashley Davidson of Turlock was wearing the same clothing as the woman in the video and initially gave deputies a false name. She was eventually identified and placed under arrest.

Davidson was booked into the Tuolumne County Jail for three outstanding Felony warrants for grand theft and false impersonation.
