HAWKINS, Texas — A woman accused of breaking into a Hawkins nail salon and stealing $600 Sunday morning has been arrested.

The White Oak Police Department arrested Liquieta Kelly, 33, for accusations of stealing from the Hawkins Nail and Spa, located at 280 Beulah St., at 9:35 a.m. Sunday before the business opened, the Hawkins police said on Facebook Wednesday.

After asking for the public's help and using security video earlier in the week, the woman was identified as Kelly.

According to Gilow, she had five active warrants on charges of theft over $2,500, two counts of burglary, a bond violation and robbery. She has been arrested in Smith, Gregg and Wood counties. 

Security video showed a woman throw a rock into the glass door to break in and took $600 from behind the counter. An officer drove by and saw the broken glass after she left. 

Gilow said this was the first burglary Hawkins has seen in five months.
