NEW: There has been a change of events in a shoplifting case that started at the Target store on Old Fort Parkway. Murfreesboro Police have been able to identify a subject who was caught on camera inside the store at the time of the theft on September 29, 2023.

Murfreesboro Detectives working the case say that someone used some type of magnetic key to bypass the magnetic security devices in the store.

As a result, a worker reported a suspected thief concealed several items and then left Target without paying for merchandise.

Police originally released photos of a subject in hopes of identifying him. Public Information Officer Larry Flowers told WGNS on Wednesday they have identified the man and “...Detectives have obtained warrants for the shoplifter’s arrest.”
