Clarendon’s Lululemon store was hit by thieves twice Monday, separated by only a matter of hours, according to police.
Arlington County police responded to the store at 2847 Clarendon Blvd just after 5 p.m. after two women in their teens or 20s had entered the store, gathered up merchandise, and left without paying, a police spokeswoman said.
Then around 7:15 p.m., police responded to the store again after a similar theft involving three female suspects who fled on foot, according to ACPD.
In both cases, officers searched the area but were unable to locate the suspects. An investigation into the incidents is ongoing.
NBC 4 captured the alleged second theft on camera, airing footage (below) of the suspects casually walking out of the store with armfuls of merchandise.
And these are not the only recent reported thefts from the store.
Just after 1 p.m. on Monday, June 17, police responded to the same Lululemon store for a report of at least a half dozen younger male and female suspects stealing items and walking off in the direction of the Clarendon Metro station, according to scanner traffic at the time. An officer stopped two suspects at the Metro station.
“A larceny was reported on June 17 at 1:08 p.m. in the 2800 block of Clarendon Boulevard,” ACPD spokeswoman Ashley Savage told ARLnow. “As a result of the investigation, two juvenile males were charged with Conspiracy to Commit Larceny and Petit Larceny.”
It is not immediately clear whether any of the incidents may be related.
