The Waynesboro Police Department is requesting assistance from the community to help identify an individual involved in substantial theft from a local business. On February 23, 2016 at approximately 5:30 AM, the suspect described as a white male possibly in his late 20s to early 30s entered Walmart, 116 Lucy Lane, with thievery on his mind. He loaded up a shopping cart with nearly $750.00 worth of merchandise. The items he stole were a coffee machine, a fish tank, fish tank sand, a broom, two shirts, a car seat and a seven pieced bed set.

Still images of the suspect and vehicle are attached.
