Detectives are looking for information that may help identify the man captured in the photograph shown in this report.

The man is wanted in connection to a retail theft incident that occurred July 23 at a St. George Lowes home improvement store, according to the St. George Police Department.

Following the first theft incident, the man returned to Lowes on July 25 and allegedly attempted the theft again but was confronted by another individual, police said. The man subsequently fled the store.

Authorities said the suspect left the Lowes parking lot on what was described as a white, older-style motorcycle and may have been traveling with a female.

Anyone who recognizes the individual in the photo or has information about his location is asked to call the St. George Police Department at 435-627-4300 and reference incident 16P018480.

Persons arrested or charged are presumed innocent until found guilty in a court of law or as otherwise decided by a trier-of-fact.

    how is it theft if he’s at the register paying for it?… why are there never any details with these types of accusations?

      Probably returning his shoplifted items………”I paid cash for these and would like cash back”………
