The sheriff’s office is looking for a shoplifter and accomplice who struck a pedestrian in their vehicle while making their getaway in mid-July.
According to information shared by the sheriff’s office Monday, a man fled the Lowe’s Home Improvement store at Northeast 117th Avenue and Northeast 76th Street July 14, after stealing some items from the store.
An accomplice waiting in a car raced through the parking lot to pick up the man and struck a pedestrian walking toward the entrance, knocking the shopper to the ground, the sheriff’s office said. The victim was taken to the hospital.
A witness snapped a photo of the suspects’ vehicle as it headed south on 117th Avenue, and store surveillance video captured an image of the suspected thief, which the sheriff’s office shared online.
