The Campbell Police Department is currently investigating the theft of two American Flags in the early morning hours of May 31, 2016.
Surveillance video captured two suspects walking up to a home on Harrison Avenue. One of the individuals entered the fenced-in front yard, and stole an American Flag and flag pole. While making his getaway, he unsuccessfully attempted to jump over the 3 foot gate. The suspect can be seen and heard on the video laying on the ground moaning in pain. After limping away with the flag, the second suspect stole a different American Flag from a home down the street.
The suspects are described as white males in their 20’s. The suspect who fell during the theft, was wearing a dark colored t-shirt, light brown pants and a baseball hat. The second suspect was wearing what appears to be a blue Golden State Warriors t-shirt with dark pants. It is believed that the suspects were coming from one of the Downtown Campbell establishments and were most likely walking to a nearby home.
