Footage Shows Man Teaching Boy How To Steal
SACRAMENTO (CBS13) ―
Mall security cameras captured the images of a man who was apparently teaching a young boy how to rob and steal, according to authorities.
Police say the man was showing the boy how to steal from Arden Fair Mall stores by sneaking in through the employee entrances.
"He was basically mentoring this child in how to commit a burglary," said security director Steve Reed.
The pair was then caught on camera breaking into an unmarked police car in the mall parking lot, making off with a duffel bag.
Authorities are searching for the man and the boy, and say they will look into charging the man with child endangerment. They note that the boy had a cast on one arm, and hope someone will come forward with information.
