Sacramento Police Searching For Topless Thief In Hair Heist

SACRAMENTO (CBS13) — Sacramento Police are on the lookout for a topless thief who literally lost her shirt during the alleged crime.

Police say the woman was last seen sprinting away in a hot pink bra.

Clerks at Hair Plus beauty supply found themselves in a hairy situation during a robbery in their South Sacramento store.

Surveillance video shows two suspects, a man and a woman, entering the business and asking to see the most expensive hair extensions.

Then they say, the man ran out, hair in hand and the woman tried to follow until she was blocked at the front door by the owner.

That's when a struggle started, ending with the suspect's sweater being ripped off as she ran away, leaving her in just a hot pink bra.

Police arrived and searched the area, but the topless thief was nowhere to be found. Instead, they ended up collecting her sweater and a clump of her hair left behind at the scene as evidence.
