View Larger MapA 47-year-old Burbank woman was arrested outside Macy’s Monday after allegedly trying to steal eight pieces of clothing that were on top of her granddaughter’s stroller, police said.

The woman, Debbie Marlow, was shopping at Macy’s just after 1 p.m. with her 2-year-old granddaughter and a small dog when she paid for one item and allegedly attempted to leave with eight other items on the stroller, said Burbank Police Sgt. Darin Ryburn.

Marlow – a pet trainer, according to police records – was detained by loss prevention employees before police arrived and arrested her on suspicion of burglary. She was being held Tuesday in lieu of $20,000 bail.

The child was released to the custody of her father, Ryburn said.
