New Photos Of Seattle Girl Scout Thief Released
This man stole hundreds of dollars from a Girl Scouts table in North Seattle, police say.
SEATTLE, WA - Seattle's Girl Scout thief is still on the loose, but police have released clearer photos of him hoping someone knows who he is.
On March 3, the suspect swiped $600 from a table of Girl Scouts set up at the Northgate QFC along Roosevelt Avenue North. The man fled the scene on foot, but police were able to grab some surveillance images of the suspect from the QFC.
Seattle police are hoping someone recognizes him — before the Girl Scouts decide to carry out some vigilante justice using their archery training.

"If you recognize the man, please contact the North Precinct detectives at (206) 684-5735 before, hypothetically, a small, highly-mobile team of Girl Scouts armed with bows, poison-tipped arrows, and a Terminator-like unflinching dedication to relentlessly pursuing their target do," Seattle police wrote.
