“I think they should be able to chase them down or whatever they have to do to catch these people, because by the time they call the police, they’re gone.” “Terrible because right now everybody’s just starting to get back on their feet,” said shopper Cindy Barraco.
Many stores have hired security guards to serve as a deterrent, but many are told not to chase after shoplifters.
Palo Alto police were working with regional partners to see if the same group of suspects may be connected to other similar burglaries. On May 18 in San Francisco, a group of thieves ransacked a Saks Fifth Avenue store in Union Square, making off with $90,000 in merchandise. “At this point, we don’t have any specific information that would link the two crimes together, other than the similarity of the offense.” “We did have a somewhat similar incident last month on May 19, also at the Stanford Shopping Center, at our Macy’s store where a large group of subjects came in very quickly together, went straight to the handbag section and also made off with quite a haul,” said a Palo Alto Police spokesperson.
