Phila Police

On April  2 2020 a male was shopping for items inside the Wal-Mart store located at 1675 South Columbus Boulevard.  He was pushing a shopping cart and had his wallet in the cart.  As he was looking at items on a shelf, he was distracted . That is when the thief struck. He took the victims wallet and walked walked away. He the exited the store.

Wal-Mart is a company that does not spend a lot on labor. However, they do spend a lot  on security.  They have a state of the art camera system  which got some really good video of the opportunistic thief.   You can see that here. The thief was too stupid to wear a mask so you can see his face clearly.
