"APEX, N.C. — The Apex Police Department asked for help from the public in identifying a man they say stole approximately $25,000 worth of electronics from the Target in Beaver Creek Commons. A surveillance image from the store shows a young white man in a white T-shirt. Anyone who can identify the man in the picture is asked to call Det. Josh MacMonagle at 919-362-8661."

$25,000 sounds like almost the entire electronics dept

looks like if Phil Mickelson fucked Mark Cuban

4/21/2011 5:53:08 PM

That is about as clear as it gets ID wise. He's fucked.


What in the hell did he have in the cart?

4/21/2011 5:56:08 PM

the guy stole $25,000 of electronics merchandise and 6 months later the police are asking for the public's help??

that shit has already been fenced and the guy is probably living in South America by now

4/21/2011 5:57:00 PM

or just steal a baseball cap from the baseball cap section of target

4/21/2011 5:57:17 PM

Not to state the obvious but it looks like he walked out the front door with $25,000 in electronics???? I need to learn this technique.

4/21/2011 5:57:39 PM

lol didn't someone get SHOT at target in apex around this time?

how does $25,000 worth of Target quality electronics take up less than a shopping cart?

4/21/2011 6:25:34 PM

what in the world are you buying that you can fit 25K worth in a buggy and not look incredibly suspicious.

I mean, if you go with laptops (even the expensive model at target) you're thinking $1500 each, you'd need to fit in 17 of them in your cart. Or you could go with like 40 iPads. Or 500 video games

4/21/2011 6:26:37 PM

An employee would have to unlock all of those things.

4/21/2011 6:28:47 PM

the only thing I can think of is the entire storage shelf of iPod Nanos.

4/21/2011 6:29:23 PM

looks like the Cary PD and the Apex PD hang out

why the hell wasn't this picture on the news six months ago?

4/21/2011 6:33:01 PM

they've had a black guy in lockup for 6 months for the theft, but they figured they better finally investigate into all this video evidence Target keeps sending them before going to trial.

4/21/2011 6:35:45 PM

banner year for both Apex and Cary Police Departments

It just sounds too funny to be true.

good timestamp on the picture

4/21/2011 6:54:24 PM

I refuse to post in this thread.

4/21/2011 6:57:49 PM

I don't get how these guys are that stupid to go in there without any mask or covering whatsoever knowing damn well that target has video cameras.

4/21/2011 7:00:34 PM

seemed to work just fine if they still haven't been caught 6 months later. The person is probably a professional thief from out of state.

4/21/2011 7:06:10 PM

I remember hearing about that a while back. I figured this was a bumped thread with an arrest update.

4/21/2011 8:58:44 PM

Looks like jackleg has put on a few pounds...

4/21/2011 9:07:49 PM

And Target still upholds having NO door greeter. gg Target.

I don't think he could have casually walked out with $25,000 worth of merchandise if he'd been wearing a mask

4/21/2011 11:48:13 PM

jewelery is the only thing short of actual cash that is that valuable in a Target, use your heads people.

4/22/2011 12:09:08 AM

Target been wrote that shit off, y'all

Seriously, what irresposible fuck didnt folow him, or tell target rent a cops to keep an eye because he walked off.

And then, homeboy had to load his fucking car with whatever the hell he had.

My Guess is, they "estimated" for the insurance company.

4/22/2011 12:30:59 AM

ORLY FAT WHITE GUY? noooooo

4/22/2011 12:34:34 AM

Why didn't the beepy things behind him go off?

Something seems fishy

4/22/2011 4:32:51 AM

yes, once those flashy siren goes off, everyone instantly stops and waits for a store attendant.





this is what's called a pushout. literally he just filled his car w/ merchandise and pushed it right out the front door calmly, with the presence that said "hey, I'm supposed to be doing this."

A door greeter wouldn't change this. Happens at Wal-Mart too. People just smile at the door greeter and walk on out too.

what stops these people is a front LP office with a secret door that only they can use, to blind side these people as soon as they pass the Point of Sale and exit the store.

Then you can jack them up legally via shopkeepers law.


Oh, and 25k is the sum of his thefts. He's hit the place multiple times.

YOU WOULD KNOW

I watched a guy walk into the K-Mart on Western on night about 10 years ago, whip out a 55 gallong garbage bag, and proceed to fill it to the top with cartons of cigarettes. Meanwhile, the store cleck is 5 feet away from him checking us out and pays him no mind. Once the bag is almost completely full, the store manager yells out "Hey! That guy is stealing cigarettes!", and the guy slowly throws the bag over his shoulder and jogs out of the store to hop in a car with a driver waiting at the entrance for him. The whole event was rather comical to watch.

yeah, that totally would have stopped him

an old man yelling politely for him to stop would have totally rattled him
