BURBANK, Calif. (KABC) -- A group of thieves was caught on camera stealing from a store in Burbank and the business owner wants to get the word out.

The incident happened Thursday at Qurves Boutique on Victory Boulevard.

According to the Burbank Police Department, two women caused a distraction as two others stole items. Surveillance video shows them stuffing $400 worth of clothing and other merchandise into their skirts.

A similar crime was reported last month in Upland. In that incident, a group of women walked out of a convenience store with $1,100 worth of wine bottles tucked under their dresses.
