Twins Stole 180 Bars Of Soap From Absecon ShopRite: Police

Maybe they had a really hot double date.

Why else would police say this pair of twins stole 30 six-packs of Dove soap?

Twins Kenny and Lenny Stewart, 48, of Absecon, are accused of stealing 180 bars of soap from a ShopRite in Absecon, according to News 12.

The brothers attempted to steal the soap on Dec. 16, running out of the store with employees chasing them, Absecon Police said.

Upon escaping the store, the twins ran into a trash can, which temporarily knocked them over, according to police.

They recovered, but soon met the same fate when a shopping cart got in their way, police said.

However, it was ultimately an Absecon patrol officer that stopped the twins. He confronted them after they recovered from the shopping cart mishap and rounded the corner of the store.

Although the officer was investigating a minor car accident, he quickly turned his attention to the accused would-be robbers, and was able to take them into custody.

The twins were charged with shoplifting and resisting arrest.

Anyone with additional information in this incident is asked to contact the Absecon Police Department at 609-641-0667.
