NEW YORK (77WABC) — The NYPD says a woman who dubbed herself a “professional booster” after she was nabbed for shoplifting earlier this year has been arrested again — for allegedly robbing the same Manhattan drug store 10 times.

42-year-old Michelle McKelley now has 108 arrests under her belt following her latest bust Wednesday, when she was charged with 10 separate petty larcenies from the Rite Aid at Second Avenue and East 96th street. Police also said McKelley’s alleged spree at the Rite Aid started April 21, and resulted in the theft of dozens of body washes, hair products, soaps, candy and other items worth nearly $1400.

“I’m a professional booster. Y’all are stopping my hustle,” she allegedly told officers, reported by The New York Post.

Back in February, she was nabbed for allegedly stealing from a Target on Third Avenue near East 70th street — in what was believed to be her 96th arrest.

Her arrest for the Rite Aid spree came three days after she was nabbed for stealing from a Target on Columbus avenue and 100th street on Sunday.
