A man allegedly stolen from the same Chevy Chase, Maryland, grocery store three dozen times in the last few months, and Montgomery County police now say they need the public’s help identifying him.
The suspect has allegedly committed these thefts 36 different times at the Amazon Fresh location off Wisconsin Avenue, racking up an estimated $7,000 in stolen merchandise, according to police.
“Essentially, he has taken merchandise, passed all points of sale and then leaves the store without paying for any of the merchandise,” said Lauren Ivey, a spokeswoman with Montgomery County police

Montgomery County police are asking anyone with information about the suspect or the thefts to contact the department through its website or by calling 1-866-411-8477. Tips with information leading to an arrest may be eligible for a reward from $250 up to $10,000. Tips may remain anonymous.
