Marana police are asking the public for help identifying a pair who stole two BMX bicycles from kids at a Walmart at Continental Ranch Retail Center.

The theft occurred Sunday at about noon when a man and woman exited the Walmart Supercenter at 8280 N. Cortaro Road, according to a Marana Police Department Facebook post.

The bikes were parked in front of the store, and the man and woman took off on the bikes. They rode up to a parked truck near GameStop at the Arizona Pavilions Shopping Center, states the post.

They put the bikes into the bed of the truck and drove away. The truck was described as a silver or light-colored midsize with an extended cab, said police.

The culprits were captured on surveillance video, and police released images of bikes similar to the two that were stolen.

Anyone with information is asked to call Marana Police Department at 382-2000 or 88-CRIME.
