The White Plains Police Department announced Tuesday that someone has been arrested in connection with an alleged larceny scheme targeting the Nordstrom department store at The Westchester Mall.

Officials say they have charged 24-year-old Dominic Bascoe.

"The investigation, a collaborative effort between the White Plains Police Department’s Detective Division and Nordstrom Asset Protection, revealed a total loss of merchandise valued at over $243,000," according to a press release by the department.

Police say the investigation began on March 18 when an internal theft was reported to the White Plains Police Department. Officers told News 12 that surveillance footage captured an employee, identified as Bascoe, concealing high-end women’s fragrances and beauty products in clear bags before staging them outside the building’s loading dock on Paulding Street. Police say Bascoe was then seen putting the items in his personal vehicle without paying for them.

Following the initial report, investigators conducted an extensive audit of store records and surveillance. The investigation uncovered a pattern of theft dating back to Dec. 5, 2025, according to police. Over the course of four months, Bascoe allegedly orchestrated 32 separate incidents, removing approximately 82 boxes of luxury merchandise, including Dior fragrances and premium beauty creams.

“This arrest is the result of outstanding investigative work and a strong public-private partnership with Nordstrom’s security team,” said Commissioner Wade C. Hardy. “We remain committed to protecting our local business community and ensuring that those who exploit their positions of trust are held accountable.”

Bascoe is due in court on May 20.
