Dalton police are searching for two people suspected of shoplifting a large amount of perfume and cologne from the Walgreens at 1247 Walnut Avenue, according to a release from the Dalton Police Department.

This is the second time an incident like this has happened in the last two months at the same store, and the suspects recorded on surveillance video appear to be the same individuals from the previous case on Feb. 27.

On Tuesday, April 24 at around 2:45 p.m., a black male and black female entered the store together and went to the unattended perfume and cologne area. The man used a key to unlock the display case, just like what happened in the Feb. 27 case, and the pair left the store with about $400 worth of cologne and perfume bottles, according to the release.

The DPD asks anyone who recognizes these individuals or has information on these crimes to contact Detective Brian Shirley at 706-278-9085 extension 9189.
