Thief Steals Fur Coat from Local Clothing Store: Crime Stoppers Seek Information

An unknown man boldly walked into the charming Becky Brooks Vintage store located at 432 East Main Ave and made away with a $70 fur coat. Bowling Green Police are now predominantly engaged in their search for the man.

A Shocking Midday Robbery

The suspect, shown in footage obtained from the store’s CCTV cameras, casually browsed through various clothing items before zeroing in on his target – a fur coat retailing at $70.
