Dundee theft at the Family Dollar

CRIME: RETAIL THEFT
CRIME SCENE: FAMILY DOLLAR STORE - 600 DUNDEE RD., DUNDEE
POLK COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE CASE #23-13935
On April 2nd at about 8:50pm, the man in these photos walked into the Dundee Family Dollar store, and began gathering merchandise.
Among the items he gathered were a cooler bag, a deadbolt kit, and Tide Pods.
The store employee confronted the man at the exit, and the suspect released the deadbolt kit and cooler bag. He got away with the Tide Pods.
The suspect was wearing black sandals and a jacket which may have either llamas or alpacas on the back. Our guess is that they are alpacas--as in, "Alpaca all of this stolen stuff up and leave the store." But then, it could have been, "Llama just take a few things here and not pay for any of it."
Either way, we want this guy identified. Recognize him? If you do, please do us a solid and contact Deputy Ervin at 863-438-9540 or MErvin2@polksheriff.org
