NARRATIVE OF INCIDENT:
On November 29, 2024, Springfield Police Department’s Crime Reduction Unit partnered with loss prevention personnel from more than 30 retailers across the city for a ‘Black Friday’ retail theft operation.

This operation resulted in 35 arrests and the recovery of 181 stolen items valued at nearly $6,000. None of the arrested individuals made any attempt to pay for the items they had taken from inside the store.

During one of the arrests, officers also recovered multiple stolen firearms from the suspects.

SPD has engaged in multiple retail theft missions over the last year and will continue to partner with area retailers to address the issue.

If you would like more information on ways to partner with SPD, please contact us at police@springfield-or.gov.
