ALLEN PARK — One of two thieves who stole three portable air conditioners June 24 from Lowe’s Home Improvement, 23111 Outer Drive, left behind a Bridge card, which, along with in-store surveillance camera footage, allowed authorities to match his image to his driver’s license photo.
A loss prevention employee said a man and woman loaded three portable air conditioning units, valued collectively at $1,018, onto a cart and went through the self-checkout lane, at which they only paid for an item of candy. The couple then left the area in a silver Kia Sportage.
The man left a laptop case in the air conditioning aisle, with his Bridge card and a cigarette box with a crack pipe inside.
