Ohio Police Scratching Their Heads Over Serial Rogaine Thief
MOUNT HEALTHY, Ohio (CBSNewYork/AP) -- Police in Ohio are on the lookout for a bald man they say has been stealing hair growth and memory aid products from stores.
Mount Healthy police have issued an alert for "a serial thief'' they say recently took $847 worth of Rogaine and Prevagen products from a Walgreens store in the city just north of Cincinnati. He is linked to similar thefts from retailers in nearby suburbs.
At one Walgreens store, the stolen merchandise was worth over $1,500, CBS affiliate WKRC-TV reported.
They're not sure if he's using any of the products himself but suspect he tries to sell them online or at flea markets.
Mount Healthy Detective Chris Jones told one news outlet that police are "scratching our heads at this, no pun intended."
