Lakeland Laundry Detergent Theft.

Aug 27, 2021
Media Contact : Brian Bruchey, PIO

The Polk County Sheriff's Office is trying to identify two suspects involved in retail theft, and let's be honest...it's not going to be easy based on these photos.

On August 27th, at around 2:15 PM, the two men entered the CVS store at 6105 US 98 North in Lakeland, and commenced to thieving. 

The crooks stole laundry detergent. Loads of it. Literally. And it will all probably end up at a flea market or social media somewhere for resale.

Both suspects are believed to be older black male adults. The two fled the area in a white 4-door passenger vehicle (not sure what kind at this time).

If you recognize these men, or the vehicle, or you have some other information that could be helpful in this investigation, please contact Detective Marshall at  863-577-1625 (case #21-35784).
