A staff member manages to rip the blanket off exposing the pram full of stolen goods which started spilling over the floor
Video footage of the incident shows a woman wearing a body warmer and black jeans pushing pram with a yellow blanket draped over the top.
Aware that the woman is trying to steal, security staff formed a line at the exit of the store in a bid to stop her from leaving.
She tries to go around them before one rips off the blanket exposing the stolen goods.
‘Get her, get her, get her,’ a person is heard saying loudly in the video.
Ms Rice said the woman hurled verbal abuse at the staff members as they tried to stop her from leaving.
‘They were obviously getting defensive and one of the women yelled, “Get your hands off my f***ing pram”.’
A second woman dressed in a black top jumps to the woman’s aid as staff engage in the tug-of-war with the pram.
The second woman can be seen swinging her arm towards one staff member’s head while yelling loudly.
