Box Store Bandit! State Police in Upstate Want Help ID’ing Man in Photo

Have you seen this person before?

State Police in Upstate New York released a photograph of a man, and his getaway pickup truck on Monday, hoping that someone who sees it might be able to help them identify the person who stole a bunch of goods from Walmart over the weekend.

In the security photo, the accused man appears to be walking out of a Walmart with a shopping cart full of stuff.  According to State Police, he stole from the Oneonta Walmart, located at 5054 State Highway 23, Oneonta, NY.

Masked man, medium build, short-ish hair...

The masked man, seen in the photo wearing mostly black, has a shopping cart full of goods, which according to State Police, he did not pay for.  Thanks to his mask, it's difficult to make out any facial features but the accused man appears to be white, with a slight to medium build, and relatively short hair.

His two-door pickup truck is somewhat distinct and might be easier to spot than the man.  It appears to be a darker color, perhaps a grey or a green, and the front bumper is protected by a rather large grille guard.
