This happened after one of the women opened the door to investigate reported theft that was going on where food items were being passed through the window,\u201d said Ms Doka.<\/p>\n<p>She added: \u201cThe young men pushed her into the store and took off with items which included some blankets, flour, diapers and sanitary towels donated by P&#038;G.
