Legal Answers
Q. Can I report a minor stealing from CVS to police?
A: Yes, you are legally permitted to report a theft you witness, even if the individual involved is a minor. However, it's important to keep in mind that incidents involving minors are often handled differently than those involving adults. Law enforcement typically approaches these cases with a focus on intervention and rehabilitation rather than immediate punitive action.

When reporting the incident, ensure you provide clear, factual details about what you witnessed. The police will then assess the situation and determine the appropriate course of action, which may include contacting the minor’s guardians or involving juvenile services.

Please note that this response is for general informational purposes and should not be taken as legal advice. If you have concerns about the incident or need guidance specific to your situation, consider consulting with a qualified attorney. ... Read More
