'Group' robbery at Mesa store has police worried
2007-08-29
Nearly 30 people swarmed a Mesa convenience store at Alma School and 8th Street late Friday, stealing about 15 beer cases, chips, sports drinks, gum and candy.

The Mesa Police Department said this is the second time in less than two weeks that this type of group shoplifting crime has occurred. Mesa Police Department's Steve Berry said the thieves pay for some items, but only to distract the clerk from the others who are stealing items. The extreme number of thieves then overwhelms the clerk and makes it difficult for employees to identify them, even on surveillance tapes, Berry said.
