A Brooklyn woman's alleged theft spree across Nassau County came to an end.

Nassau County police said they arrested Magdalena Samsin, 41, on Friday night in Elmont.

Samsin is accused of going into more than 27 stores across Nassau County and stealing upwards of $50,000 worth of goods and merchandise. The theft started in August 2025 and continued until this month, police said.

News 12 asked investigators for a full list of locations Samsin targeted, but police only confirmed one so far, the Marshalls at 600 Hempstead Turnpike in Elmont.

Officials have not confirmed what items Samsin took, but said in each case she passed all points of purchase and exited the stores without paying.

Samsin was arraigned on Saturday and pleaded not guilty to one count of grand larceny.
