Man Takes $900 Worth Of Drills From Sears, Leaves Making Chicken Noises

One way to commit a crime is to create a distraction, and maybe that’s what a man at a Sears store in New Hampshire was trying to do when he allegedly filled a cart with power drills and made chicken noises when employees tried to stop him. It did work: he got away, and now police would like to know his whereabouts.

CBS Boston has a still image from surveillance video, and fortunately for everyone, there’s no audio. It would be interesting to find out what kind of chicken noises startle Sears employees: did he cluck, or crow like a rooster? Would he have escalated to dancing like a chicken if they had confronted him further, or if police had caught him in the movie theater parking lot where he was last seen?

The four drills are worth a total of $900, so police would like to catch up with him. The man is described as white and dark-haired and in his twenties or thirties, and he is able to run in flip-flops.
