We have said it before, the motto of some shoplifters is:  If at first you do succeed, then try, try again.  Such was the case in multiple shoplifting reports from Walmart over the weekend.  Wilkesboro Police were called to the store Friday night.  The store surveillance video showed one black male get out of a Ford Expedtion, come in the store, get a shopping cart, walk around,  the store, and then leave.  A second black male got out of the same vehicle, came in the store, got a shopping cart, put a LCD TV and a weedeater in the shopping cart, and then leave the store without paying.  An employee at the store said one of the men was also seen on video from the night before stealing several things from the store.  On Sunday,  Wilkesboro Police were called back to Walmart.  The subjects involved in the thefts from Thursday and Friday night had once again come to the store this time to steal an air conditioner.  Police located the suspects in a Ford Expedition in the Shoe Show parking lot.  Police questioned the man and woman inside the vehicle.  Only one, Marvin Hill of Wilkesboro, had been involved with the thefts.  The other person in his vehicle was involved with a gas drive off from earlier that day.  Hill did identify the other man who took the TV and weedeater on Friday.  Hill was arrested and charged with larceny.  A warrant has been issued for the other man and charges are pending.
