HOMETOWN – Rush Township Police are seeking the public’s assistance in identifying a pair of individuals who they believe committed retail theft at Walmart in Hometown twice — a few weeks ago, and yesterday.

According to police, around 2:45pm on April 22, a pair of men left the Hometown Walmart without paying for several electronics, leaving in a 2010 Honda Accord.

The two returned yesterday and attempted to steal a TV, and, when confronted by Loss prevention officers at the store, they fled.

Police are seeking the public’s assistance in identifying the pair. Anyone with information is asked to contact township police at 570-668-4242 or email [email protected]. All calls will be held in confidence.
