It is time for our pre-holiday edition of Name That Thief. In this round, you will have two
opportunities to…. say it with me…….Name – That – Thief.
Case #14S-09631
In our first case, we see how quickly a suspect can get
into an unlocked car and steal things….even with good lighting and video
cameras. In giving advice to the
community, time and again we remind everyone to (1) Lock Your Doors, (2) Don’t
Leave Valuables Out In The Open. Here is video #1
This suspect enters this unlocked truck and takes an iPod
and pocket knife in just about 2 minutes time.
The theft happened on Thursday November 20th around 5:30 PM
in the 100 block of Mission Street.
In video #2 our suspect heads out of the truck, and you
can see his “lookout” wingman enter the picture momentarily. Here is video #2:
Both look to be white males in their late teens or early
twenties. If you recognize them, send us
a tip using the info at the bottom of this post.
Case #14S-09598
In our second case, this suspect steals a couple of pairs
of socks from CVS by stuffing them down the front of his pants and walking out the store. This event happened on Wednesday November 19th around 8:50 PM. Here is our suspect.... pre-sock stuffing
With the holidays looming, this kind of behavior is sure
to get our suspects on the legendary “Naughty List. Help us catch them to increase your chances of
being on the “Nice List”.
Have a great Thanksgiving!!!
