A man described as a Caucasian male, approximately 45 years old and 6’ tall had left the store with a 9 piece cookware set and an electric razor. Once outside he handed the stolen goods to a short 30 year old South Asian man driving a red Dodge Neon with inactive license plates who quickly departed. The thief then got into the back seat of a black Ford Expedition that had a Caucasian female in her mid 30’s with blonde hair sitting in the passenger seat.
