TV Shoplifter Sought in Dalton
The Dalton Police Department is asking for help from the public in identifying a man they say shoplifted a television from the Sears in Walnut Square Mall on December 11th. The television, a 32-inch ProScan TV, is valued at about $400.
Police say on the afternoon of December 11th, a group of four people, two men and two women, arrived together in the Sears store and began to move around the store together. One of the group walked into the electronics department and picked up a television which was still in the shipping package, and walked out the door of the store without attempting to pay.
A spokesperson says that detectives have been working other leads in the case which haven't panned out, so now they are hoping the public can help.
The suspect is described as a white male described as being in his last 20’s with brown hair and a thin, neatly trimmed beard dressed in a polo shirt and black North Face jacket. He has a tattoo of a cross on the back of his neck. The group fled in a waiting Nissan pickup truck.
This crime was recorded on the store’s surveillance system, and an image of the suspect is included below. If anyone has any information on this incident or the identity of the man pictured below, they are asked to please contact Detective John Helton with the Dalton Police Department at 706-278-9085, extension 143.
