Newark Public Safety Director Emanuel Miranda, Sr., requests the public’s help in identifying the male suspects pictured below, who shoplifted perfume from a store specializing in women’s apparel on July 28, 2025.
The suspects entered Tutti Fruit Boutique at approximately 3:35 p.m. in the 200 block of Ferry Street. After taking time to browse, they asked an employee to show them several fragrances. On surveillance video, Suspect #1 paid for an item but concealed the stolen merchandise, valued at $396, in a backpack. He and the second suspect left the store without paying.
Suspect #1 is described as a Black male in his late 30s with a stocky build. He wore a black T-shirt with orange letters that spelled “Brute,” and he also wore black shorts with a metallic silver web stamp and black shoes.
Suspect #2 is described as a Hispanic male in his late 30s with a slender build. He wore a black T-shirt, gray shorts, a black hat, black glasses, and metallic Jordan sneakers.
