The King County Sheriff’s Office is seeking the public’s help identifying a brazen thief who casually walks up to a restaurant counter and steals a customer’s debit card:

It happened on May 2, 2021 at a pizza restaurant in the 9600 block of 16th Ave SW in White Center (map below).

A cashier placed a customer’s card on the counter after ringing up the sale. The male suspect reached over and took the card, then ran out the back door. The victim saw this happen and chased the suspect, but was unable to locate him.

The suspect is described as a male in his 30’s, thin build, wearing a black shirt over a gray hoodie and dark-colored jeans.

If you recognize the suspect, please contact our non-emergency number at 206-296-3311 and refer to case #C21013602.
