The Polk County Sheriff's Office is trying to identify the men involved with some criminal mischief at the Circle K store at 10704 Hwy 98 North in Lakeland (Case #20-28647).
The crime occurred on Thursday, July 23rd.
Two of the men involved could be named Alex and Evan. This is because those names were painted in the parking lot of the property.
It appears that one of the graffiti men was a passenger in the black truck, and the other graffiti man was the driver of the car.
If you recognize either of these men or any of the other occupants or vehicles, please contact Detective Colletti at 863-577-1600. Or if you wish to remain anonymous, contact Heartland Crime Stoppers - call 1-800-226 TIPS (8477), visit the website www.heartlandcrimestoppers.com and click on "Submit A Tip," or download the free "P3tips" app on your smartphone or tablet.
