INDIANAPOLIS — An accused thief is behind bars after being charged with a series of thefts in and around the north side of Indianapolis.
Officials said that 45-year-old Elliot Harmon is accused of:
- Stealing tools at a Lowe’s on Shadeland,
- Stealing heaters at a second Lowe’s on Rural
- Stealing video game systems and gift sets at a Meijer on Keystone
- Stealing shopping carts full of boxes at a Dollar Tree on 38th street.
Prosecutors claim the same man seen in surveillance pictures committed numerous crimes at various stores over the last several months.
In addition to being charged with six crimes, Harmon is also suspected of additional thefts at a Target on Keystone, a liquor store on 71st Street and a TJ Maxx on 82nd Street.
According to jail logs, the suspect’s arrest this week marks the 34th time he’s been booked into jail in Marion County in the last 20 years.
While that number is certainly frustrating to those in law enforcement, IMPD said they remain committed to holding repeat offenders accountable for their crimes…
