Police: Who Are These 2 Larceny Suspects?

They came in and minutes later, took off with $1500-plus worth of video game consoles, accessories and Rings, the video doorbell devices.

WATERFORD, CT — Police need a little help from Facebook sleuths to identify two people suspected of larceny. At Target on Black Friday just after noon, two people came into the store. A while later, the man left, with two Rings, two PlayStation consoles, an Xbox console, and game controllers in a shopping cart without paying. He met the woman in the middle of the parking lot, loaded the electronics into a tan sedan and they took off with the $1,552.92. worth of goods.

While asking for help id'ing these two, police first answered a few questions they said would invariably come.

"Good Monday morning FB friends, we could use some assistance to identify these two people. I will start by answering the certain questions you will post in the comments. Yes, the cameras could be better. Yes, theft happens in many businesses. No, staff can’t watch every single person in the store at all times. No, this theft didn’t use all the police resources in town. Think I got it all. Thanks for any likes and shares, it helps get the word out! You guys rock."

Police say if you know them, please either private message them on Facebook or contact the investigating officer, Officer Zaldivar at 860-442-9451 ext 2250 or by email at tzaldivar@waterfordct.org. All contacts are kept confidential.
