Police on Wednesday were seeking the public’s help identifying two men suspected of stealing personal belongings, including cash and a cellphone, from a woman shopping at a Burlington store in Santa Ana.
According to the Santa Ana Police Department, surveillance footage shows the two suspects entering the store on Bristol Street separately, just seconds apart, before following a woman who had placed her purse on top of her shopping cart.
The video shows the woman browsing through clothes as the suspects appear to signal to each other. One of the men then reached into her purse and stole cash, a cellphone and several other personal items, police said.
Detectives are working to identify both suspects and are asking anyone who recognizes them to come forward.
Anyone with information is urged to contact Detective R. Wilson at 714-245-8551 or by email at rashadwilson@santa-ana.org.
