A 26-year-old woman arrested for a hit-and-run is facing felony stolen property charges after authorities allegedly found $4,700 of stolen purses in the back of her car.

The arrest came Friday after deputies responded to a hit-and-run crash at The Woodlands Mall, according to Montgomery County Sheriff's Office.

Deputies tracked down the fleeing vehicle and made a traffic stop on Mall Ring Road. As they searched the car, authorities allegedly found 15 Michael Kors purses with the tags still on them, along with a pair of wire cutters.

Footage from the mall's Macy's apparently showed Maria Rangel and two other suspects stealing the purses.

Deputies returned the goods to the store and arrested Rangel. The other two suspects have been identified and warrants will be filed.
