Shoplifters who might’ve been looking for goods in preparation for a coronavirus quarantine are being looked for by the Palm Beach Sheriff’s Office.

PBSO says two men in the Greenacres Walmart, 6294 Forest Hill Blvd., packed carts with two cases of Tide detergent, two packs of Charmin toilet paper, a large pack of paper towels, Swiffers and four cases of Corona beer. They skipped the payment portion of the shopping trip before leaving in what might’ve been a 2013 white Hyundai.

Anyone who knows anything about this can call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-458-8477 (TIPS) or using the “See Something” feature on the PBSO app.
