In the early afternoon on the 15th of January, 2014, a lone female entered the Macs Mart on McNabb Street.

The staff assisted the female suspect, who was looking to purchase a phone charger.

The suspect fled the store with an undisclosed amount of phone chargers and was observed getting into a gold coloured Malibu with no rear plate.

The vehicle was driven by a thin male and was last seen driving south bound on Pine Street.

Also, an incident involving a theft of a cell phone was reported on the 20th of January, 2014, at Wal-Mart on Great Northern Road.

The suspect is described as a white male possibly in his early to mid 40's, wearing green/black ball cap, black leather jacket, white hoodie, blue jeans, black boots, small pony tail and gold hoop earrings.

The male was observed getting out of a 2005 white Ford 4x4 with tinted windows, step ups and a white tonneau cover.

The driver was female and she drove around the parking lot while waiting for him to make an exit.

While in the store the male suspect used an exacto knife to pry open a cell phone box.

The female grew impatient and decided to park the truck and go in the store looking for the male.

The male then proceeded out the front doors with the cell phone expecting to make his escape, but the vehicle wasn't waiting for him.

He was last seen running toward the Leon's parking lot.

Soon afterward the female was observed leaving the parking lot of Wal-Mart in the vehicle, she drove in the same direction of the male.
