ShopWrong: ShopRite Suspect Sought

Police just released photos and video footage of a man suspected of stealing food from ShopRite.

The man took two items and left the Cherry Street store without paying for them on Nov. 23, according to police.

When a store security guard approached him, the suspect pushed the worker back and ran away, police said.

A witness later told investigators that the suspect ran through a Sunnyside Court backyard across the street from the shopping plaza and then jumped in a dark Chevrolet pickup in the parking lot of neaby Goodies Restaurant, police said.

The suspect is described as a white male, heavy set, fair complexion, goatee, with a cross tattoo on the right side of his neck and other tattoos on the front and left side of his neck.

The male was wearing a blue baseball hat with “CHEVY” on the front in white lettering, a red shirt, gray hooded sweatshirt, and a green camouflage jacket.
