What a fool! I used to work at this store and have been in the Loss and prevention office! Lots of video cameras and they can zoom in very close to a person’s image and what they are doing. What a dumb man at 50 years old. Get a job and get a life! These are the people that cause prices to go up! I hope he gets prison time and pays the stores back!
