Lakewood police were asking for help Thursday in identifying a man suspected of stealing alcohol from eight Target stores in Pierce County since August.
The most recent robbery was Dec. 9 at a Target in the 5600 block of Lakewood Towne Center Boulevard Southwest.
Police said the man entered the store, grabbed several CDs and a bottle of vodka and tried to leave. During a confrontation with a store security officer, he shoved the woman into the doors and ran.
The robber is about 30, 6 feet and 250 pounds. He has short black hair, a mustache and a beard.
Tacoma-Pierce County Crime Stoppers is offering up to a $1,000 reward for information leading to the man’s arrest and conviction. Tipsters can call 253-591-5959.
