DENVER (AP) - Authorities are hoping
suspects come clean following a rash of thefts of laundry detergent and
expensive face lotion across Colorado.
KCNC-TV reported on Wednesday that supermarkets are installing more surveillance
cameras to combat the rising tide of thefts. They are also hiring undercover
agents.
Authorities believe thieves are
targeting those products because of high prices.
Police have surveillance video of a
suspect in Ft. Lupton getting away with more than
$8,000 of detergent from six different stores.
Detergent thefts have also been
reported in other parts of the country. Tide in particular has been used as
currency for drugs. Experts say it is well-suited for resale on the black
market.
