According to the Flagstaff police report, officers were dispatched to the Home Depot at 1325 W. Route 66 around 1:30 p.m. Thursday after an employee there saw a woman exit the store with a boxed drill set that still had the security cable attached to it. A second witness told police he saw the woman run to a parking lot on South Plaza Way, where a man was waiting for her in a red ATV. The witness followed the ATV as it drove to a motel parking lot, where it appears the woman may have exited the vehicle and a second male took her place. The witness also found the security cable discarded in the parking lot. The witness then followed the ATV to the Super Pawn at 2916 E. Route 66. Officers confronted the two male suspects at Super Pawn, where they had tried to sell the stolen drill set but were turned away because they did not have a receipt. Store employees told police the same men had pawned an acoustic guitar there earlier in the day. One of the suspects initially gave officers an ID card that he later claimed he had just found. He then directed them to a Social Security card with a different name. Officers were unable to confirm his true identity.
