COLUMBUS, Ohio -- A woman who claimed she won the lottery is facing criminal charges after creating a frenzy inside a clothing store in Columbus, Ohio.

On Tuesday, the woman told shoppers at a Burlington Coat Factory that she won the lottery and would pay for everyone's items.

She did pay for some shoppers' items, then left after maxing out her credit card at $5,000. She said she'd be back, but didn't return. Police arrested her for fraud and inducing panic, because of the commotion in the store.

She did not win the lottery. It's not clear what she was up to.

Come on, now. "Handicapped" is so politically incorrect! I prefer the term"racially challenged".

The local Acorn office closed early. They all left with cell phones glued to their ears. Now I know why. It's just a shame that when it was found out to be a hoax.

People used it as an excuse to steal and smash things.
