LEBANON, TN - It seems like no beauty store in Middle Tennessee is safe these days. Just when we thought we'd heard it all, a new ULTA heist has emerged. But this time, the theft did not occur in Murfreesboro or Smyrna. In this go-around, we head to Lebanon, Tennessee, where three suspects, sporting their leftover pandemic facemasks, decided that they were in need of some makeover supplies. Naturally, instead of heading to the checkout counter, they opted for the classic "grab-and-go" approach. After all, why pay when you can just dash?
The daring trio, whose fashion choices could use some help (ironic, given their target), were caught on camera. One suspect, perhaps in an attempt to distract with body art, displayed an impressive array of tattoos on her legs. Another, embracing a sporty look, was seen in orange shorts and a black cut-off shirt. The third member of the clique, clearly ready for cooler weather with a black beanie, kept it coordinated with shorts and a jacket adorned with a red Adidas logo and red stripes.
As expected, they didn’t hang around for long. The three sped away in a rather conspicuous orange Hyundai hatchback, complete with a temporary license plate. Subtlety clearly isn't their strong suit. The Lebanon Police Department, always up for a good mystery, is now asking for the public’s help in identifying these beauty bandits.
If you happen to know anything about the identities of these three style-challenged shoplifters or their getaway car, Lebanon Detective Stephen Huddleston would love to hear from you. You can reach him at 615-453-4393 or via email at huddlestons@lebanontn.org. Who knows, maybe you’ll help solve not just this crime, but possibly connect the dots to other ULTA heists in the region. Because if there's one thing we know, it's that criminal activity in Middle Tennessee sure gets around.
