Franconia Police District – Officers are asking for the public’s help in identifying the person who stole over $10,000 worth of iPhones from Target located at 6600 Springfield Mall. On Friday, October 19, the suspect arrived at the store in what we believe is a black Toyota sedan. He went to customer service and identified himself as a Target Mobile employee, and obtained keys to the stockroom. He then took the iPhones from a secured box in the stockroom and hid them in his backpack. The suspect was a black man, wearing a black T-shirt, khaki pants, navy/white Air Jordan shoes, and a black Nike “swoosh” backpack. If you recognize the suspect, or have information about this crime, please contact Officer S. Carter at 703-922-0889.
