When she saw me turn my lights on, she dropped that immediately. I'm not >> here. My allowance wanted >> up here. >> Hi. >> Hello. I heard something happened >> in the parking lot. >> Yes. >> Yes. >> I'm glad that your life was spared. >> Barely. >> I uh I moved like a ninja. An old ninja. [laughter] Um so what we need to do is we need to get a total of everything. So here's what happened. 15 cars later in a helicopter. We caught them. We caught them because they can't really drive very well and they drove the car off into a pond on the other side of BP. So they all had to swim to us. So whatever else I I the way I understood it from the call there was more stuff they'd been coming in and out. So more than one trip. >> So if it's the group that we are thinking of I don't know if our loss prevention has been in contact with Flaggler County. >> Not that I'm aware of. I'm new to this call. >> Okay. Um >> I just happen to be right here and >> as it happens great. >> They're like hey they're walking out of the store and I'm like hey I see them. And as soon as I turn, >> who called? >> Uh, some some gentleman had seen it and he even tried to help me stop the car. >> Yes, he I saw him in the parking lot. Yes. Yes. >> Okay. So, I will try to find out who he is and get a hold of him. I tried to call thinking it was y'all's loss prevention. So, good Samaritan. >> Yes. >> Wow. Okay. So, there's definitely been a group. We We've got large lots and lots of groups. And there's one particular group in particular, I guess, that it's been coming weekly. And I I wasn't out there to confirm if this was the same group or not, >> but our loss prevention was we were told if they come, it doesn't matter the dollar cuz we have to call only when it's a certain dollar amount to report it. So that way time >> um >> between that and and if they did make several trips in and out like was being said, >> then there's a bunch more in the car, it's going to get towed and taken to when they get it out of the pond. It's going to get towed and taken to Yeah. Hey, you got to see the back of my car. One of the ladies I I cuffed and put her in the back of my car. My car's underwater, soaked just from her drenched. So, the biggest thing is right now what we need to do is do start our statements. I guess most important to start off with, we need a value. >> Can you create a value with this >> and then >> also what you might have seen in the camera? >> So, we can't go back and look at cameras, but we can certainly She was getting ready to write a report where you walked in. I was almost done. >> I wasn't out there, but I'm going to go watch the sales tour. >> Yeah, this was the collection. >> Well, hopefully this will >> they took from the front table. We just don't know. They filled up two baskets and a tote. It was a tall, skinny black guy, right? Did he have a tote? >> So, when I was already in the car when I came out, he was driving and the two ladies were the ones that were hustling for the car. >> Yep. Yep. So, it was the three of them. >> Um, yeah. The guy was driving, he's the one that took all the ceilings. They were just kind of walking around the store. >> Okay. So they did come in and out. >> Yeah, >> they did it multi. How many times? >> So I only saw them today once. One time two baskets. That was all I saw today. That was it. >> And if it's the group that we're thinking of and you have them, I will give you our um loss preventions information cuz there's a >> I'll need just need them and and we will help. Absolutely. I just need to see if we can get uh video. >> This was only a portion of what they took today. So, you figured they had a basket and this, right? >> They had two of our shopping baskets. This probably filled up the half of one that I saw. And then the other one was >> the one lady I think she she threw something into the car, but it was like >> So, I wasn't paying attention except for they're all I'm trying to figure out what car they're running for. So, I'm I'm not really focused on what she had. The one girl, Amanda, she dropped this like just like that. And I was like, "Oh, okay." And I I don't know from there if the other lady cuz I look back. So I don't know if the other lady chunked something in the car. So chances are there's a lot in the car. Maybe from this store, maybe from other stores. >> Oh yeah, they they they make their >> We're impounding it. So it'll go to our lot. So that's a plus. Um it's going to be a bit before they get it out. >> You know where the BP is down by by 95. >> The older gas station across from the hospital. That's Sometimes it's occupied, sometimes it's not. >> On 100. >> Mhm. >> On the right. >> Yeah. Just past the Chrysler Dodge dealership. right here. Yes. >> So, they thought that was a road >> and they were doing about probably about 85 trying to get away from us and turned into that. And >> I heard the helicopters and I heard the cops over candles. I feel terrible. God, >> we don't this Flagger County. We don't play. >> Oh, I know. >> They don't do that here. [laughter] >> Well, they do it here every week. Well, we just can't about it. >> Yesterday, we had something happen here, too. And supposedly um Well, they did. They hit um the game store here. >> Yeah. They got a remote control, some Pokemon cards, >> random. >> Worth your life. That's what >> Well, only thing we could get from them. And they It's same mo. They covered the um the license plate with the blue surgical mask. So, as I'm running, I'm trying to look to get a tag and I'm like, "It's I don't run much." So, if I'm ever running, get in front of me, something's coming. So, I'm running and I'm like huffing and puffing on the radio and I'm like, "There's no tag. It's covered." >> So, how many candles fit in one basket? Figure out how many candles fit in one basket. Times it by two. >> 13. >> 13. You think it's only 13? >> I'm thinking 13. 14. >> So 28 candles, right? >> And then there was half a basket. >> 28 candles. We'll say >> Yeah. >> 28. >> No, 28 * 26.95 is $755. >> That was just one basket. And then there was another basket filled half. >> I'm doing two baskets. I'm guesstimating. If you said 13 and 13, I I put 14 and 14. 28 times $26.95. >> So, can you do me a favor? >> Wait, so they took two baskets and a tote? >> Yes. And this bag? >> Yeah, that bag. And >> so they filled this bag. >> Mhm. >> Okay. So, two shopping totes plus this. So, 2 4 6 eight. Let's say 10. Let's do 10. So, they took 38 candles. >> Yeah. >> So, >> can you ring that up? And then >> $1,000. >> And you guys definitely want to pursue charges. Yes, >> I can get information from loss prevention, but most likely yes. >> How fast could we do that? Cuz once we have them, we need to get we have an affidavit or a form that needs filled out that says you are willing to pursue charges. >> Well, let me call, >> please. Thank you. >> Okay. Um, just give me one minute. >> Okay. >> Um, >> all right. So, I know you already know how to do this. >> Yeah, just give me a statement. I'll go over there and do that. >> Yeah, do that. take your time. If you want me to come over there afterwards, that's fine. Um, >> so what I need is uh if you have a card, you have an email address, right? >> So I can send send you a link so you can access the video >> from your store. >> Yeah. So you can just go on your laptop and you'll create a guest user and it'll give you you go right in and you'll be able to access the video and download it if you want. >> From this store or your store? >> From your laptop? >> Yes. >> From from TJ Maxx. >> Oh, so they hit you too. So, let me explain what happened. >> Yeah. So, I'm I'm an organized retail crime investigator for this company, which is Marshall's TJ Maxx. >> I came up here to get some video for the state's attorney. >> Okay. >> While I was looking at that video, I saw them come in. >> They started grabbing all kinds of kids clothes. So, at that point, I went outside. When they pulled out bags and concealed, waited for them to come out. My boss said, "How much is it?" I said, "It's about 200." He said, "Well, just try to get to the vehicle tag info." I said, "Well, there's a PPE mask covering it." And I said, "And now they're parked in the front of Bath & Body Works." He goes, "Go ahead and call." So, I called you. You pulled up and you tried to stop them and they ran. I pulled behind the car and yelled to peep the horn and yelled to you that the guy's trying to get away. They tried to run you over. Yep. >> So, I followed after him, kept him in sight, and I lost him back by the >> I'm glad you did. Did you see where we end up getting them? >> Yeah. Well, no, but I I lost them at the fire station and she said, "That's okay. We just picked them back up." >> You saved the day. >> And so I came I said, "Tell them I'm coming back to the store." Yes, we want to prosecute. I'll be there waiting. >> Okay. So, I got a whole another case. >> Sorry. I guess I should have explained all that to you. >> No, I didn't. I didn't grab that. So, >> so there should be and I want I could see them I can be a witness for them if needed because they did it all right here and I could see them through the window. I literally was telling the dispatch that they're loading up two baskets right now. I can see he was throwing all kinds of bottles over in here into the baskets. >> They stayed thankfully right here. >> But they can give you video, too. Uh the investigator, he can get you video, too. He already sent me pictures of the theft in here. >> Okay, that's awesome. Yeah. So, what they think this is is a ring. So, if we can squash this ring now, this is what we're going to do, >> right? And this that's what I do. That's this the kind of stuff that we do. >> Perfect. Well, >> um I I'll get you a case. I'm going to start another case for your store. >> Okay. >> So, I have a separate case and I'll get you that. This is me for now. >> Okay. So, you're going to see something come in. It's going to say invitation to use Genitech clearance. That's our camera system. >> Okay. >> So, all all you'll do is you'll go you'll you'll you'll you'll go into it and it'll say make a username. You'll make a username and bam, the video is going to be right there. >> Okay. Perfect. >> And then you there's a a thing if you want to download it, you can download it or you just have permanent access to it. >> Right. I'm gonna get a detective to do all that. They're going to want it anyway. I'd rather he download it because they'll have to download our cars with Verizon as you see. Okay. >> It'll be spotty. So, if they can get it, they can I I'll find out for sure what I'm >> doing. I'm uploading the video right now. >> Okay. >> And then, um I'll do a train here. But that's I don't know if you guys got the merchandise back or not. >> We We have the car. It's submerged. So, >> Oh, >> yeah. So they they when they were getting away from us, they you know the BP down here by the highway that hardly gets used. >> They thought that was a road. Took it about 85. Realized it wasn't a road. It's a gas station parking lot and into the pond. >> All right. So I know this is >> we're getting everything. The tow truck's pulling it out. >> Getting everybody's merchandise back. Uh will we be able to do that today? Do you think? Yes. >> Okay, perfect. >> And so um Did they get hurt? Anybody hurt? >> No. They're one's claiming typical >> so that so that way they go to the hospital and think they're not going to go to jail. >> Right. That's what they do. The other two the main ring leader which is the tall skinny guy. >> The third female didn't go into my store. She was already in here. >> I only had two females. A male and two females. >> That's what I meant. Like third the third person. >> Like oh crap. We got one in the woods. [laughter] >> I had we had K9 ready to hit the woods. >> Oh my god. >> So this is when they exited. So, I had her and him were the ones that hit. Um, and that's when they were pulling when they were going over here. Um, >> I definitely would love to have those pictures if you can shoot those. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And I I was recording, I think, when they try to run you. Oh, no. I stopped. I stopped. >> Oh, man. >> Luckily, I have it on my camera. Uh, but my car is at a my car's at an angle. I'll put that. I'm not sure. I saw that. >> I'll put that in my statement. I tried to back up. We're we're doing it's aggravated assault >> cuz the the dispatcher could hear >> and he heard you say don't try to run me over who and she goes is he trying is he trying to run over my officer? I said yeah he did. She goes he needs help. He needs help. [laughter] >> I'm just holding don't move fast. >> Hey I'm glad you came. >> Yeah.

They already know what they didn't even know anybody stole. So, I went over there and I went over there. Y'all know somebody just stole from you guys. >> It's almost like you're going to have security guards every store. >> It's a shame. >> All right. >> All right.
