Folsom Crime Logs: Shoplifting Surge at Premium Outlets and Commercial HVAC Heist
The latest crime logs released by the Folsom Police Department reveal a variety of theft incidents, including repeated shoplifting at the Folsom Premium Outlets and a heavy-duty commercial HVAC equipment heist.
High-Volume Shoplifting at Outlets
The Folsom Premium Outlets continue to be a primary target for retail theft. Over the past week, multiple stores reported thefts involving groups of shoplifters who entered retail spaces, grabbed large quantities of designer clothing and accessories, and fled before store security or police could intervene. Police are working with outlet management and store security to enhance surveillance and response times.
HVAC System Stolen from Commercial Site
In a less common incident, thieves targeted a local commercial site, dismantling and stealing a large heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) unit. Police note that this type of theft requires specialized tools and a vehicle capable of carrying heavy machinery. Detectives are investigating whether the stolen unit was taken for resale or scrap metal value. Residents and business owners are encouraged to keep commercial properties well-lit and report any unusual mechanical work occurring after hours.
