Menomonee Falls police seek suspects accused of stealing 100+ scratch-off tickets from Speedway
MENOMONEE FALLS -- Police in Menomonee Falls are looking for three suspects accused of stealing scratch-off lottery tickets from the Speedway gas station on Main St. near Shady Ln. early Saturday, March 17.
It happened shortly before 5 a.m.
Police say an investigation has revealed a female suspect entered the Speedway and proceeded to talk with the clerk at the rear of the store -- creating a distraction by dropping a glass bottle, which broke.
Then, two male suspects entered the store -- one of them going behind the counter and removing 18 "Crossword Craving" scratch-off tickets. The two males then fled the store. One soon came back inside and went behind the counter and removed 95 "Wild Bingo" scratch-off tickets before again fleeing the store.
The female suspect soon left the store without making any purchases.
Police noted this incident may be related to a similar theft being investigating in Grafton.
