Monday, November 24th, 2025

The Dalton Police Department is asking for the public's help to identify a man who shoplifted two gaming computers from Walmart. The theft was recorded by the store's surveillance cameras. The computers were valued at a total of nearly $1,900. 

The theft happened at the Shugart Road Walmart on November 20th. Shortly before 7:00 am, a man entered the store and immediately went to the electronics department with a shopping cart. The man loaded two gaming computers into the cart and then pushed them to another part of the store where he pushed them into an aisle away from any customers or employees. He spent approximately 5 minutes there, fidgeting with the boxes. Then the man pushed the cart with the boxes out of the front door, refusing to stop for the door attendant when asked for a receipt. 

The two stolen computers are an iBUYPOWER SCA7R77XT01 Gaming Desktop, (AMD Ryzen 7 8700F, AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT, 32GB DDR5, 1TB NVMe SSD) valued at $1,099 and a CyberPowerPC Gamer Master Gaming Desktop (AMD Ryzen 5 8400F, 16GB, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 8GB, 1TB SSD, Black, GMA7300WST) valued at $799.00. The suspect is a bald white male who wore dark rimmed eye glasses, a gray Nike t-shirt, and gray shorts. He left the store in an oversized white box truck. 

Anyone who recognizes this man is asked to please contact Officer Emily Thornton at 706-278-9085, extension 9-627.
