The EASIEST crime of the century
By JOEY CAPPELLETTI
Of the Keizertimes
Last week, two men piled thousands of
dollars worth of electrical wire into their
Lowe's shopping carts before strolling past
a powerless security guard and driving off
with the stolen merchandise.
The crime took place one of Keizer’s
busiest parking lots in broad daylight.
A video of the incident, taken by another
customer on Aug. 25, has received close to
25,000 views on Facebook and hundreds of
angry comments.
“It was so blatant, that’s what riled me
up,” said Andrew Sullivan, who fi lmed the
incident. “They were just strolling through
the parking lot, just riding the carts."
The stolen merchandise according to
Sullivan, who is an electrician, is Romex
