Detectives with the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station are searching for a grand theft suspect who stole over $950 worth of cigarettes from a local business in Canyon Country twice over the past few days, according to a Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Nixle alert.
According to the Nixle, the suspect, who appeared to be a man wearing a blue sweater and light blue jeans, entered the same business on the 19000 block of Soledad Canyon Road on two separate occasions and allegedly committed a grand theft.
The business targeted was the Walgreens near the intersection of Soledad Canyon Road and Whites Canyon Road, according to Detective Kevin Fleck, with the SCV Sheriff’s Station during a follow up phone call with The Signal on Tuesday morning.
