1/16/14 - Hamburg Police are asking for help tracking down a suspect in an alleged fraud incident late last month. According to Sergeant Megan Paul, the suspect parked his vehicle behind a retailer at Pettysville Junction on December 29th. She says he then went inside, opened a cooler near the exit, grabbed a six-pack of beer, and left the store when the clerks were busy. The crime is being investigated as a retail fraud, which is more serious than shoplifting in that it is considered a five-year felony. Security footage of the man has been released by the Hamburg Police, and anyone who can identify him is being asked to contact the department. Anyone with information is asked to call Sgt. Paul at (810) 231-9391, ext. 454 or email at mpaul@hamburg.mi.us. Information can also be texted anonymously to the Hamburg Police by texting the keyword âHTPDâ and your message to 847411. (TD)
