After surveillance video surfaced Monday of a woman brazenly making off with a laptop and phone from a San Francisco coffee shop — the victim had gotten up to use the bathroom — the internet did what it does best, spreading the woman’s image far and wide and eventually prompting her arrest at another coffee shop Monday afternoon, police said.

Paul Raynal, 32, of San Francisco, was arrested at a cafe on Clay Street after an employee recognized her from the video and called police, said Officer Gordon Shyy, a spokesman for the San Francisco Police Department. He said Raynal was wearing the same shirt seen in the video of the theft, which occurred Friday afternoon at Joy’s Place in Lower Nob Hill.

Raynal initially tried to pass off a false identification with the responding officers, but she was detained and booked on suspicion of burglary, possession of stolen property, false impersonation and a parole violation, Shyy said. She also had an outstanding warrant out for her arrest.

The victim, Ahryun Moon, a 29-year-old freelance developer who moved to San Francisco from Austin six months ago, credited Joy’s Place for helping her get the video out to the public. “They were extremely nice about the whole thing,” Moon said. “They spent nearly two hours going through the video.”

Police officials said Raynal didn’t have Moon’s laptop in her possession when she was arrested, but they are hopeful it will be recovered.
