December 1, 2023

By KAREN VELIE

The San Luis Obispo Police Department is asking for the public’s help identifying a man who allegedly stole purses from Nordstrom Rack and a woman who snatched items from the Boot Barn.

Surveillance footage from the recently opened Nordstrom Rack captured footage of a heavyset man leaving the store with his arms full of purses on both Nov. 17 and Nov. 26. Investigators are asking anyone who recognizes the suspect to contact Officer Church at (805) 594-8004 and reference case 231127058.

On  Nov. 28, a video camera captured a woman leaving the Boot Barn, also in the Madonna Plaza, allegedly with stolen merchandise. Investigators are asking anyone with information about this case to contact  Officer Behrens at (805) 594-8064 and reference case 231128049.

Police are circulating surveillance images of both suspects.

Well, at least the video cameras are getting better. Both photos give a chance at identification, especially the female.

Under $900 and nothing happens to you… I think I can knock out my entire Christmas list for under $900…. Happy Holidays indeed….

Why?, nothing will happen to them and they know it.

Well, unless the law has changed, if the retail value does not exceed $900 the perps would get what amounts to a speeding ticket. Of course, no telling what those Nordstrom items cost, probably wouldn’t take much to exceed the $900 threshold.
