Clumsy thief makes off with $1,300 in cigarettes

Police are looking for a clumsy burglar caught on video stealing $1,300 worth of cigarettes from a Walgreens on South Federal Highway.
Boynton Beach police report that store surveillance video shows a man and woman walking toward the store around 3:13 a.m. The woman distracts the clerk in a conversation about wart medicine.
As the woman and clerk walked to the back of the store, the man jumped over the front counter and put 25 cartons of cigarettes into a large bag. He then jumped back over the counter and dropped the bag, scattering cigarette cartons across the floor right in front of a surveillance camera. He picked them all up and fled.
The male suspect is described as a black male about 30 years old wearing a long white T-shirt and brown or black Dickie’s work shorts. The woman is a black female who was wearing all white medical scrubs. They fled in a newer model white or silver Ford.
