AUSTIN (Nexstar) — Texas lawmakers on Thursday considered new ways to combat retail theft, a growing and often organized, destructive threat facing stores across Texas.

Law enforcement experts described the trend as a “crisis,” claiming current laws are inadequate to prosecute and deter the crime.

“The escalation of organized retail crime, organized cargo theft, and attacks on our entire supply chain” are “threatening our economy as a state and the stability of our communities,” Chief Special Agent for BNSF Railway Police Department Will Johnson testified.
