TUKWILA, Wash. — Tukwila Police wants help in finding a person suspected of retail theft.
On Jan. 21, around 7:30 p.m., a suspect entered an Old Navy store in Tukwila and left with a handful of jeans.
“As we’ve previously stated, if you’re here to commit Organized Retail Crime (ORC) related thefts, you are going to be put on blast, you will be identified and you will be booked into jail,” Tukwila PD posted on Facebook. “This photo is exactly what ORC looks like. Thieves that do not care or even try to conceal what they’re doing.”
The suspect is wanted on suspicion of second-degree theft.
Police said the charges will be filed when they catch the thief.
“We are also working with our law enforcement partners to determine other locations that she likely has been stealing from in other jurisdictions.”
Police ask anyone with information or who recognizes the suspect to email Officer Gentile at c.gentile@tukwilawa.gov, call the non-emergency number at (206) 241-2121 or send a private message on social media.
Tukwila Police is not offering a reward but said, “The reward is her being held accountable and hopefully deterring others who since COVID started have felt that they can commit crimes with reckless abandon and no consequences.”
