On the Lookout for Serial Toys R Us Shoplifting Duo

Police say they targeted stores from New Jersey to Maryland over the last few months

Police suspect a man and woman stole tens of thousands of dollars worth of Toys R Us merchandise as part of an organized scheme targeting stores along the East Coast.

The shoplifting team has traveled between New Jersey and Maryland, robbing stores for months, said Toms River Police in a news release Friday.

Authorities say some information was developed that may link them to Toms River but there are no victims in the township, said police.

The suspects may be traveling in a four-door Cadillac, said police.

"Toys R Us is working closely with the Toms River police to investigate this situation," said the company in a statement to NBC10.

Anyone with information on the suspects is asked to call Toms River Police Det. John Bajcic at 732-349-0150 ext. 1278 or by email at jbajcic@trpolice.org. You can also send a private Facebook message.
