Once he realized that he was unseen, he entered the store and robbed the jewelry island. On another occasion, after the shopping center had closed, he went to one of the bars to grab a bite.
Next, he slipped under the steel curtain into a branded clothing store and “picked” his new clothes. On his way back, he visited the bar again and had another meal.
