iRobot Thief: Mulberry Walmart
Aug 30, 2020

The Polk County Sheriff’s Office is trying to identify the man in this photo. He got a brand new Roomba iRobot for a steal. Literally.
On August 30th at about 6:17pm, this man entered the Mulberry Walmart and vacuum cleaner to the self-checkout.
Using a little dishonest trickery, he was able to only pay 47-cents for the $300 machine.
As you can see, our suspect appears to be a bald white male with a height of about 5-foot-6. He was also wearing a silver watch and a wedding band. So if you happen to be married to this man and he gave you an iRobot for your birthday or anniversary, please realize he only spent 47-cents on your gift.
If you recognize this man please contact Detective B. Wright from the Polk County Sheriff’s Office at 863-499-2400. Or, if you’re married to this man, and you’re totally hacked off that your husband gave you an illegally-obtained gift, you can call a divorce lawyer first, then call Detective Wright. And if you would like to do this anonymously, you can do that by calling Heartland Crime Stoppers - call 1-800-226 TIPS (8477), visit the website www.heartlandcrimestoppers.com and click on "Submit A Tip," or download the free "P3tips" app on your smartphone or tablet.
