Police in Nanaimo say a brazen theft of a 75-inch television from a Walmart in June was ill planned, with two suspects caught on video placing the large T-V on a car rooftop and holding it down with nothing but their hands.
Nanaimo R-C-M-P say a man and a woman, both in their 40s, now face theft charges after they were filmed driving off with the stolen T-V on the evening of June 8th.
Police say responding officers noted the car's licence plate and the clothing worn by the suspects, locating them hours later at a gas station.
Mounties say they searched the vehicle and found parts from the stolen television, but the item was not fully recovered and the pair were released from custody, due in court in early September.
