Three people darted in to the Dick’s Sporting Goods store in Hempfield this week, grabbed $3,000 worth of merchandise and ran out, according to state police.
Troopers arrested one of the suspects, but are seeking help to identify the other two.
The theft was reported around 11:30 a.m. Sunday at the store near Westmoreland Mall off Route 30, said Trooper Steve Limani. Video from the store shared by police showed the security alarms sounding as three people wearing pants and hooded sweatshirts race out the front doors carrying merchandise in their arms. Limani said they identified a Ford car as being possibly involved and later stopped the driver, identified as Hussein A. Hassan, 18, of Pittsburgh.
Anyone with information is asked to call state police at 724-832-3288.
