Accused shoplifter doesn’t think too highly of CG Jail’s cheese sandwiches

MASON CITY – A pair of young North Iowa women were arrested at Kohl’s Department Store late last week for shoplifting.

Mason City Police were called to Kohl’s, 556 Indianhead Drive in Mason City, on March 20at about 5:40 PM for a theft report. Two subjects were arrested and charged with 3rd degree theft: Brianna Dean Taft, age 19 of Klemme, and Hailey Marie Aukes, age 20 of Garner, were taken to the Cerro Gordo County Jail, booked and released.

Both women have court hearings next month.

In January of this year, Taft was given a deferred judgement on a drunk driving offense and 1 year of probation.

Aukes, speaking via social media, said she made a mistake that she regrets.

“I know very stupid, put myself in a horrible situation and … learned my lesson,” she said. “Was not worth it, and the food sucks so stay out of jail! I dont ever plan on eating a cheese sandwich again!”
