Crime Stoppers

Mulberry beer theft

Jun 30, 2023
Media Contact : Brian Bruchey, PIO

CRIME: RETAIL THEFT
CRIME SCENE: CITGO, 4075 SR 60 WEST, MULBERRY
POLK COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE CASE #23-27018

On June 30th at around 5:28 pm, our suspect (wearing the white t-shirt and blue jeans in the video) entered the store, grabbed two 12-packs of Modelo beer, and fled without paying for them.

While watching this video (which you can watch here), you'll see another person (wearing a black hoodie) holding the door for a woman exiting the store, but then it becomes obvious that no, this person is not being polite--this person is holding the door for the beer thief, and the two are actually in cahoots as the two flee together. 

If you recognize these suspects, or you have any information that could be helpful to this investigation, please contact Detective Hannon at 863-499-2400 or at RHannon@polksheriff.org.

If you wish to remain anonymous, contact Heartland Crime Stoppers in one of four ways:
• CALL 1-800-226 TIPS (8477)
• DIAL **TIPS from your cell phone
• VISIT www.heartlandcrimestoppers.com
and click on "Submit A Tip,"
• DOWNLOAD the free "P3tips" app on your smartphone or tablet.
