MANCHESTER An undercover investigation is undoubtedly needed to find out who stole hundreds of Victoria Secret Very Sexy brassieres from a Mall of New Hampshire store.
Victoria Secret manager Kelly Duvall called police Thursday at 4 p.m. to report that up to 200 of the push-up, but not padded, bras in various sizes and colors were missing.
The bras were stolen from the storage area of a display case.
Each is priced as between $40 and $45. Police said the total value of the stolen bras could exceed $20,000.
Anthony Hebron, spokesman for Limited Brands, parent company of Victoria's Secret, said that estimate is high.
"We have not been able to assess what the amount is," he said. "It ($20,000) sounds a little high."
Police said the thieves will be limited in how they can dispose of the bras because of the large number of them.
Anyone with information concerning the incident is asked to call police at 668-8711.
Information may be provided to investigators anonymously by calling Manchester Crimeline at 624-4040.
