On October 16, 2021 at 9:06am, a Shoreline deputy was dispatched to a theft at a grocery store in the 15300 block of Aurora Ave N. A deputy was met by the victim, who explained she and her husband had been hired to clean the floors overnight.

 
The woman said she left her backpack in a shopping cart at the northeast corner of the store near the bakery. The store closed at midnight. At 2:30am, she discovered the bag was missing.
