Latasha Singletary is on probation from a robbery in April last year.
A woman who robbed the same liquor store three times in less than 24 hours was arrested at her home in Fall River, Mass., police said.
Latasha Singletary, 30, is charged with two counts of armed robbery and one count of robbery while masked. And Singletary was on pre-trial probation involving an armed robbery in April 2011 at the same store.
Investigators say that Singletary went inside Anna's Liquors at 4 p.m. Tuesday with a knife and T-shirt pulled over her head and demanded that the 52-year-old clerk give her money.
Police were unable to find her after a search.
Singletary then returned the next day at 10 a.m. to rob the store again, police said. This time, in addition to money, cigarettes, lottery tickets and liquor bottles were also taken. While police were typing up the incident report for the morning robbery, they received a call at 2 p.m. that Singletary was robbing the store again.
Police descended on the area and, following tips from people in the neighborhood, found Singletary at her home.
"People really stepped up to the plate to help us," Detective J.D. Costa told The Herald News. "We got a lot of community cooperation. It really made a difference."
She was being held on $25,000 bail before her arraignment Thursday.

I is crying caus I can'ts figure out how they keep catching me... Latasha Singletary at booking.
She ain't the brightest bulb in the block.... her neighbors
Oh hell no not again... story clerk
She probably figures if they can't find her then she can keep going back. Why isn't there a camera feed from the parking lot so they can see her coming? Obviously she ain't there to shop!!!
We found her AT HER HOME! with all that community help, said quota-hire Costa... What awesome detective work.
She's crying because she won't be able to feed her crack habbit while in jail.
This world is one where people get extremely desperate right now. Can't exactly let them off, but should really demean them either.
Desperate for liquor? You gotta be sh*ting me. She is lucky she wasn't shot.
Can she qualify for "World's Dummest Criminals?" What an idiot!
Well if someone shoots her, which she deserves, the whole nation will be up in arms because she's black.
Isn't armed robbery a felony? Why the heck was she out anyway? Our justice system and work!
Sad thing is that this may be not the last time she might rob this place if she ever gets out from bail or finish serving a long sentence
This is a sick person she does not belong in jail but in a mental institution,if she talks like it is written in #1 she is also retarded.
I love Stupid Criminal stories.
What a dumba$$.
She's better off behind bars...
Were better off that she is behind bars. She definitely spent to much time in front of them.
This woman was flaunting her stupidity and is right where she deserves to be. Hope she stays for quite a while!
Probably bragged about it too.
Gwad amighty! Go to the spring too often and someone will always break your pitcher.
I agree - what a dumb ass!
What's stupid is YOU for trying to discuss this person as a rational actor. She is obviously not quite sane.
Why can't trash like that just be shot. It is about time to do the taxpayers a favor.
Taxed, Ever hear of the Bill of Rights? The first ten amendments of the US Constitution? Pay special attention to the eighth amendment. I highlighted it for you.

Her being shot would not be cruel, She has proven repeatedly she cannot live in society and will harm others given any chance she has. Keeping her in jail is a waste to taxpayers as she has shown she will not change and be a waste of money. Only other option to shooting her would be insuring she can NEVER try to rob someone again in any way possible. if you want her locked up it should be for life and you can pay for it, tired of supporting them in jail then giving them welfare when they are out and cannot hold a job cause they will not work for what they need but try to scam, cheat or steal from others. Cruel is taking (stealing) money from people to support thse that refuse to work and continue to commit crimes , stealing from others and not respecting others rights. It makes it harder on families to have a decent life when you keep stealing their money to support people like this both in jail and on welfare.

Devils Son sounds like a defense attorney.
If that store isn't careful it is going to lose a loyal repeat customer.
^^ best comment!
Does this gal have any children? If so, oh boy...
I sure hope that shes locked up for many many years and maybe she can get some mental health services while in jail.
I'm at a loss for words on this one...
She probably has 7 kids by 5 different daddies...gotta raise 'em right!
had the store owner blown her away the first time......
She had a loyalty card obviously. And they arrest her for that?...what a pity.
5th armed robbery and she would had earned a free fountain drink and a hotdog!!
You gotta admire her tenacity!
Or arrogance!
Exactly. The girl has grit
They don't have grits in Massachusetts
Im probably being too serious here, but what are the chances that she WANTED to be caught? Free room and board and medical treatment...behind bars.
They don't have grits in Massachusetts
That's why she is from Mississippi.
I noticed she was crying in the photo....Makes me laugh. It's a little late for tears honey
Sounds like she was having a mental meltdown. She snapped.
Same store, Three times in TWO DAYS! Wow.
Everyone been in her shoes before minus the armed robbery. Go into the store but always forget something on the 1st trip there. Forgot the lotto tickets, cigarettes and liquor. She should have wrote a list. Could have gotten it all on the first time around.
Third time is a charm!
Since it was apparently so important to get money from this particular store, it probably would have been easier to convince them to fork over some protection money.
This woman definitely gets the stupid award. What makes her think her crying is going to make her appear smart?
Unfortunately she has way to much competition. With the probable 7 kids we know that more of "her" is still coming.
Yea, people should definitely stop inbreeding.
I wonder if she will remember standing in front of the judge...
Want to bet a substance abuse problem was at work here?
Jesus, can we just off her? I don't see her providing any benefit to mankind, EVER.
It's called private welfare.
So, this woman was ALREADY on probation for robbing the SAME STORE? Why was she not in the jail? I guess some judge in Fall River has a soft spot (in his/her head, not heart) for people like this woman.
go to aa and turn your life around before its too late!!!!!!!
How many ways can one say "dumb ass"?
God has forgiven her and loves her very much. She goes to church every Sunday.
