Actress Winona made headlines six years ago, when at
the peak of her career she was convicted of shoplifting 3,000 sterling pounds
(about 5955 U.S. dollars) worth of clothing from a Saks Fifth Avenue in
Beverly Hills.
Now in a new incident, according to America's
National Enquirer magazine, the "Girl Interrupted" star recently set off the
security alarm at Hollywood CVC Pharmacy after making several purchases.
According to the publication, when she left the
store, she set off an alarm that drew the attention of a security guard.
A store employee is quoted as saying: "Winona had a
bag of stuff, but she set off the theft alarm when she left the store.
"When a security guard stopped her, he found make-up
she had not paid for."
And when she was asked about the make-up, Winona
answered: "I don't know how that happened."
The store employee added: "We took unpaid items back
and she left the store."
Winona's publicist at first denied the incident took
place. But when told a store employee had confirmed it, said she would check
with her again.
