According to Sgt. G.T. Collins, the incident involves shoplifting. It took place Sept. 4 at 9:45 p.m. at the BFS situated on Main Street.
The incident started with a male suspect pulling into the parking lot and parking at the gas pump despite not getting gas. Shortly after that, the criminal activity for which he is being sought began.

Based on surveillance footage, Collins has been able to determine the suspect was driving a Ford Fusion, white in color. The person also is a white male who is approximately 6’0 tall with dark brown hair, and a beard.
In this particular case, the suspect is wearing a white t-shirt with “Tune Squad” on the front of the shirt and “Space Jam” characters on the back of the shirt. The suspect also wore tan shorts, and white shoes.
