UPDATE: Hardware Sales says on their Facebook page that they have identified the suspects.

BELLINGHAM, Wash. – A Bellingham hardware store is asking for the public’s help identifying two shoplifters.

Hardware Sales posted on its Facebook page that one of the men tried to steal bear spray on June 15th, but was stopped outside by store employees.

The store says bear spray is becoming a popular weapon used against loss prevention personnel as shoplifters try to get away.

Another man is wanted for two recent thefts of knives from the store.

The store hopes to identify them so they can turn evidence over to police.

If you have information about the suspects, call Hardware Sales at 360-734-6140.
