The Dalton Police Department is hoping a member of the public can identify a woman who stole a wallet that a customer accidently left behind at a Food City grocery store. The thief was recorded on the store’s surveillance system.
The incident happened shortly after 5 p.m. on Dec. 8, at the Food City store on Glenwood Avenue. The victim left her wallet on a checkout counter. The next customer behind the victim paid for her order and then took the victim’s wallet. She then left the store. The suspect is a white woman with shoulder-length dark brown or black hair. She wore jeans and a long-sleeved white T-shirt. She was riding one of the store’s electronic mobility carts in the store.
Anyone with information on this incident or the identity of the suspect is asked to contact Detective Forrest Jones at 706-278-9085, dial 9 and enter extension 184.
