Polk County Sheriff's detectives are trying to identify the suspect seen here who committed a retail theft at the Family Dollar store located at 1090 Pipkin Road West in Lakeland.

Around 5:20 p.m. on Friday, February 17, 2023, the suspect seen here went into the store and placed several items into a handheld basket.
