Video: Shoplifter in Action at Apple Drugs

The following is surveillance footage capturing a shoplifter stealing from Apple Drugs. The incident took place yesterday, Monday, at around 11:00am, where the thief, a black male in his late 30’s spent a few minutes in the aisles of the store and made off with approximately $50 worth of goods.

One of the cashiers noticed the man acting suspicious and alerted her manager who confronted the man, and requested that he open his bag, he refused and fled. Police and Shomrim were called, but the thief managed to get away by ducking in a basement of a building.

Police filed a report for petty theft.

    1) a BLACK male? WHO ELSE?!

    2) to all shoplifters: dont be stupid. if u wanna shoplift, dont just take 50. take 50 000.

  • Chossid

    Although what he does is very wrong, I do sort of feel bad for him that he has to stoop to that.

    I also feel bad for the owners of the store who lose money because of people like him.

    It’s very sad for everyone involved.

  • BS D

    wow if i were him which i will never be but i would check if there is a video acmera dumb bell

  • haitian

    hes just taking this stuff for his brothers in haiti. they need lotion and toothpaste!

  • he-s NOT shy!!

    That’s like, ok, i need some ___________ let me go pick it up…
    where were these “people” raised????
    ok, crazy these stuff happen, gotta plant pretend customers all over store, to ensure no shoplifting happens!!
    may this be a Kapparah for something

  • Sorry

    Thanks for sharing. Apple, you should install a large monitor for all to see that they’re being watched and recorded.You should also have a monitor so that your employees can keep a watchful eye as well.

  • webby fan

  • Mind Boggling!

    Looks so easy to steal. Why would someone in there right mind….? Crazy!

  • crazy

    wow!!! crazy… the guy put a lot of thought of what he needed before he took it..!

  • Chezkie

    I feel like laughing. Thank god is was not that much, nut he is such an idiot!! Okay, he was smart to look around for people, but forgot to look for a camera!!!

  • bud

    they cant be trusted those goyim, every store needs multiple cameras or well be robbed blindly.also beaware of those pickpockets every block on kingston needs cameras and please i dont want to see someone comment,youre too scared im realistic

  • lolo

  • !!!

    wow! what does he think!? the nerve of that guy stealing….. everytime he turned around he just slipped in another bottle!

  • mmb

    fools, especially the guy in the white shirt with tzitzis walking back and forth by the counter with his back towards the aisle, providing a perfect cover. Stupid worker, futzing around the counter without even a second thought to the black guy in the aisle.

  • gfys

    come on dont they have a shomrim member working there why didint he do anything they r all good for nothing people

  • Summertime in Crown Heights

    En less he grows a lot of hair or puts on a wig he will be easy to spot out there,

  • a person who has somthing on there mind!

    i think they shuld have police men again all over crown heights like they did several years ago! and alsow, u shuld do this like most of the stoors i go 2: pult away the bags that ppl bring in the stoor w\ them. keep them in a box or somthing and give the ppl the # of the box, then they have no way 2 steal, easy, no?

  • to # 30

    to #30 he wasn’t working at the time of the crime he came it at 12pm right after it happened!

  • Raphael

    Place his photo on the window of the store as punishment. Would this violate some bizarre law of privacy? One blogger asked about his “black” appearance. If race is so important so as to not offend anyone, let’s instead ask “What country of origin is he from” instead, to avoid racial bruising. He insulted an entire community by his actions, and it impacts an already frail relationship with his neighbors because of his assault.

  • Bite Me

    Nice to see you’ve been able to validate your racism with this video. Now, why don’t you get back to whining about antisemitism?

  • can-t stop laughing

    The funniest part of this all is that he is in the isle in front of the register! Takes a lot of guts!

  • Ho hum

    People of all colors have been shoplifting for centuries. Although you think he was a fool because of the cameras, meanwhile he got away, so who’s the fool?

  • Mezuri Systems Fan

    Mezuri Systems security cameras did it again- GREAT JOB!!!!!!!

  • Yossi

    One Black shoplifting is no excuse for the very racist comments being posted here, it is shameful, I had a classmate
    who use to shoplift all the time, just ask Yitzchak Rimler about Jewish shoplifters.

  • omgoodness!!

    only in american production would you see subtitles to such a clip!!hilarious!and england scored 1 goal its been quite a day really!!

  • To Number 3

    Also feel badly for yourself and the rest of us who have to pay more for items in the store because people steal.

  • we need to be one step ahead of the game

    i guess now the stores in ch have to put a special tag on each item so if a customer leaves with a stolen good it will bleep or get someones attension- we are living in a very poor neighbourhood unfortunatly we have to be 1 step ahead of the game!!!

  • hysterical

    hysterical how he is casually choosing stuff off the shelf and making himself haimish in the store like everything is just free!!!maybe moshiach is realy here after all!!! and he knows before us haha

  • ch goya

    Hey, Bud/#17: I’m a goya and I don’t steal. SOME Jews steal (for example, the big Nigerian Bank scam was run by 7 Israelis which took millions of dollars from elderly people), SOME Goyim steal. Don’t generalize, it’s not right. EVERY community has unethical people.

    As for what this man stole, it’s unfortunate and sad that someone would have to stoop so low for such basic supplies but it could have been much worse, he could have been violent and/or had a gun.

  • what-s the point?

    Hmm what’s the point of having a security camera if not to catch thieves in the act? you should also not allow folks in your store with shopping bags!

  • wat do you want!

    he needs touthpast, to make his breath smell good so N.Y.P.D. shoodint cach him.

  • Poor him

    oish, it was 11 in the morning, he needed to brush his teeth…. what do you expect?…As long as he brushed his teeth=)

  • take a chill pill

    ok people chill out! a stupid guy stole some toothpast and lotion. what else is new? come on! it’s not dooms day and not and stop being so racist over such a stupid nothing!

  • aviva

    They keep crying over ‘racial profiling’ and then they give us the reasons to do so.
