Valencia Christine Ivy, 18, and Michael Jenkins Jr., 20, both of the 5600 block of Northwest Macedo Boulevard, have been charged with retail theft.
The report states security at Sears in the Treasure Coast Square mall saw the couple taking items from clothing racks and stuffing them in the bottom of their child’s stroller.
