Maui police have released surveillance photos from a theft investigation initiated last month at the Walmart in Kahului.

The incident was reported at 1:55 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 27, within the store’s electronics department.

According to police reports, the suspect was allegedly observed taking DVD movies off the shelves, and placing them into a black suitcase within his shopping cart.

Police say the store’s loss prevention officers tried to stop the suspect once he exited the store near the garden section, but the man ran towards Zippy’s and could not be located.

Police released the accompanying surveillance images and ask anyone with information on the identity of the individual contained in the photographs to contact police Det. Brandon Koyama at (808) 244-6449 or brandon.koyama@mpd.net.
