On 26 August, 2024, Robert Dennis went into Ace Hardware in Minden where he allegedly stole nine items, removed the packaging and placed the items in the cargo pockets of his shorts.

Before the suspect left the store, he went to the checkout cashier and purchased one item using his debit card. At that time, Dennis signed up for an Ace Rewards account using his name, address, and phone number.

While Dennis checked out, the cashier became distracted, and Dennis allegedly stole a pocket knife that was on display. Once the transaction was complete, Dennis left the store.

Dennis is wanted for misdemeanor theft.

Anyone with information on Robert Dennis is asked to call Detective Lt. Jason Smith: Office: (318) 371-4226; Cell: (318) 268-1441. Any information is confidential.
