According to a written release from the UPD, store loss prevention associates told police that a man "had loaded a cart with high value items and then abandoned the cart near an exit.  The male then returned inside the store, purchases two loaves of bread and re-approached the cart near the doors.  The male then exited store, passing all points of purchase with the full cart of items."
