An elderly woman in Loveland, Colorado, is facing charges after surveillance footage captured her turning an honor-system farm stand into her own personal pantry. The woman, who has been dubbed the “Oatmeal Cream Pie Bandit” by the bakery owner, was captured on video clearing out entire batches of baked goods before calmly thanking the camera and walking away. The best part is, as the viral TikTok and Reddit posts showed us, she came back.
The incidents took place at Gone Astray Goods, a micro-bakery located on Boxelder Drive. The owner, Stephanie Courville, discovered the thefts after reviewing CCTV footage from her stand, which she restocks every Friday. The situation is particularly frustrating because the stand relies on the trust of the community to function, making the loss of product a direct hit to the small business.
