Seattle police arrested some thieves who they say were trying steal "in bulk" from Costco. Seattle police put an end to the shoplifting spree as dash cameras and body cams recorded. Loss-prevention officers recognized what was going on inside the Costco store around 5:30 p.m. Wednesday and called police. The suspects were gathering up laptops and other items, preparing to escape out a fire exit. A getaway driver was waiting outside. Police got in position and waited until the would-be thieves came through the fire doors. Police arrested the 30-year-old man and 21-year-old woman.
The 18-year-old getaway driver was also arrested. Investigators believe they hit a different Costco earlier the same day-- -stealing more than $2,000 worth of electronics. Loss-prevention officers told detectives they'd had run-ins with one of the suspects before and he'd had a knife with a seven-inch blade in his pocket. Officers say the suspect had the knife when he was arrested Wednesday, as well. He was booked for investigation of robbery, and the women were booked for investigation of theft. They were all taken to the King County Jail.

That "hey buddy" sells the whole thing. Well done, officers!
They don't realize when they use the emergency exit (back door) they trigger an alarm?
@@cybertek3188 if they were smart they wouldn’t be stealing

Fair point
should have done the knock knock joke
Yeah, it is just perfect!
Would have been funny if they replaced the getaway driver with a cop and drove them to the police station.
G G I would have personally paid the cop to do that 😂
Lmao u made my day 😂🤣. I'll pay to see that!
G G that would be like it came out of a movie and funny for days
G G 👏👏😂😂😂👍
Damn! That's a good one!
That HEY BUDDY was personal lol
Though this happened over 5 years ago, watching it now still brings a big smile on my face. That was just pure magic seeing the thieves taken down. It must have been a shock to them when they opened the doors into the literal long arms of the law.
This was 5 years ago. Today cop may actually help them load up to leave.
@mrm7309 yeah this arrest would be considered racist and socially unjust today 😩

I love how they’re casually putting their gloves on and getting ready to joyfully arrest these guys 😂
It’s never too late! If you’re out of shape, you can get in shape, no matter how old you are. If people want to stop you, do it anyways 👍
The ass-whooping gloves! That’s how you know when something fun is about to happen. 😋
Gotta enjoy the easy wins when you get them :D
Mark Magana Honestly this circumstance is probably why most sign up for the job lol
Just like if they were about to breach and get their weapons ready 😂😂
I used to work for Lowes. The entrance door was configured to open when someone approached it from the outside but not from the inside. A guy grabbed a bunch of tools and tried running out the entrance. The doors didn't open and he hit them so hard he knocked himself out. He just laid there until the police showed up. They had to wake him up to put him in the police car.
😂😂😂😂😂
Sometimes the trash takes itself out
I don't get why people steal tools when I was a kid I would only steal food and video games but my friends use to steal clothes every black friday I never understood that because your parents buy all the clothes you want
I need that video 😂
As someone who worked in retail and had to deal with theft by the general public as well as employees, I found this video immensely satisfying.
They just wanted to see if it fit in the trunk before buying it it’s just a big misunderstanding
😂😂😂😂
This is what happens when you get greedy
🤣🤣🤣

I wish one of the cops would’ve said “need help with that?”💀

Ah the good old days when thieves were actually arrested and prosecuted.
ahhhhhhh good times
Yup, now it’s retarded.

They still get arrested (if police are present). The problem is that the dont get prosecuted.
Somebody’s been watching too much Fox News lol
Needed one of the cops to say, "Thank you for your cooperation"
How do you steal from Costco wheN YOU’RE PRACTICALLY ALREADY STEALING WITH THOSE PRICES YO

They should have quicksaved before opening that door. Noobs
What a comment😅
Tyler Sutherlan how your just mad his comment was funny
@Tyler Sutherlan I bet you're one of the thieves in the video lol.
They saved when they moved out of the door, now its stuck on a loop cycle with the police grabbing them repeatedly.
Nariji197 thats really how it be in new vegas too
I used to work at a Tucson Costco...I have personally seen thieves do this and get away clean. It pisses you off because the stage everything and steal thousands in merchandise. This is a one of a kind thing but is VERY welcome!!
Why are their faces blurred? These thieves deserve to be publicly exposed.
Totally agree
Because they're on private property and if they don't consent OP could get sued. Public property, smile for the camera.
Yea right?? I thought we lived in a country where your were GUILTY until proven innocent! That is the whole point, to publicly blast your GUILTY face all over the place until you can prove you are innocent. Fuck anyone who thinks cops get things wrong, they are almost equal to the Lord!
Presumption of innocence and all that nonsense
@@Bill67604 Good to hear you think that the presumption of innocence is "nonsense". High IQ individual detected.
They had the chance to say “Surprise Motherfuckers” at a perfect moment and they didn’t take it.
But you said it for them!!!
I was thinking that too!
Doakes
I don't think they watch Dexter would've been funny tho
Cops aren’t allowed to use profanity towards suspects however, Private Investigators/Bail Enforcement can.
You just hear one of the cops say "Hey Buddy" lol
LMFAO 😂🤣 😂

When I managed a software store in the late 1980's (before it was downloaded or ordered online), I used to keep a camera handy to take photos when I suspected a shoplifter was waiting for me to get distracted (I took photos nearby like I was taking pictures of a display). A couple of times this caused my suspect to depart the store abruptly. Later, when the shoplifting and return for cashback scheme was broken up (I also figured out how they were doing this and got the address for a refund by check), the police found a notebook at the residence with a list of our stores up and down California, and next to my store it said, "Watch out."
This just warms my heart for some reason.
Definitely a fun day at work for those cops.
A 4 PLAYJUNKIE tf are you on about goof
@A 4 PLAYJUNKIE shut the fuck up..... Bro forreal.
yea most of them where smiling

they just got turned around and thought they were headed to the checkout
Ryno dyno 😂
Made my day!😭😭
On the way to church lol.
Technically by law it's not stealing until you leave the store with it. Mom works at kmart and somebody actually has a lawsuit on them because they tried to detain the man for stealing when he never left the store 😂😂😂😂
Joseph Merkle they headed out the emergency exit, so it is stealing. Walking around the store with items isn't stealing.
“That worked out great” LOL
1:30 the way he checks his watch right as the door opens LOL
I had so much fun waiting for folks outside of exits as they thought they were getting away with a sweet haul. Their reactions to running into my welcoming arms were always priceless!!!
You see theres a reason They make those doors windowless .
And have them open on a delay
That’s definitely not the reason
Isn't it for us to not see someone burning inside?

Said one thief to the other: “I hate it when this happens!” 😂
I’m glad to be a Costco member! They don’t mess around
For anyone wondering, those doors have a device on it that has "delayed egress" meaning you can't open the door until about 30 seconds has passed. It sound an alarm before it opens to alert employees. Most often used in police stations to prevent inmates from just running out the door but in this case its used to prevent this exact scenario.
Sometimes the delay is only 15 seconds
It’s fire exit though? 15 to 30 seconds could be the difference
@@nick.100 Exactly my thoughts
Little clarification from me. Those doors have relays that can be connected to external alarm and annunciation systems so that when someone tries to open it it can trigger other systems in the building. They also have inputs that are connected by the codes to the fire alarm systems. When fire alarm goes off it triggers that input and the door releases the lock right away without any delays.

"Oh look, the police decided to throw us a surprise party to celebrate our newly acquired merchandise." 🤣🤣🤣
One time when I was working at HD we were dealing with a fire alarm. In case you didn't know that seems to be the universal signal to steal things. A fire fighter in full suit, which makes them look huge, was coming in through one of the fire doors as some jerk was trying to carry out an expensive saw. The guy immediately dropped the box and booked it. I found out when the fireman came walking over to me with the box, suggesting it had been dropped and needed to be checked for damage. He was half ticked at the idiot but also laughing at the look on the his face. I wish I could have seen it.
“Hey buddy”

Just loving it too.
Same here! Their giggling cracks me up every time!
@@nev3rd13 who's "we"? I know plenty of people that have laughed at this exact clip
@@nev3rd13 Good and thoughtful response. You sure swayed my opinion in a meaningful way. Hope you had a great time with my mom; she's a sweet lady and a nice lay, at least that's what my dad tells me. But seriously though, there's a grammar lesson to be learned here for you: when you are speaking about solely your opinion, you use the singular "I" or "me" and not the plural "we" or "us". I'm sorry you were never taught this.
@@huggniceman4975 Thank u mr hugg
Ah. 5 years ago. That was during a time when, believe it or not, these criminals were likely charged fully. Nowadays, the prosecutor would have reduced their charges to jaywalking and shook his finger fervently at them in an expression of disapproval.
When the criminals ran right into the police, 'Oh hold me daddy cops bcuz I been a bad boy', "gotta love me"😂
I'm security guard in COSTCO-like shop in Poland, and I've had simillar case (sadly the shoplifter escaped but only with minor loot), so this video makes me soooo satisfied 👌
You would've been fired on my watch.
Always a bunch of 10 year olds ,up late past their bedtime on the internet

You know they never actually left the store, so i wonder if a good lawyer could wheel that??
@@LambeauLeeeper technically speaking yes, it's only theft when it leaves the store
In this case just put lawyer in the same cell with them.
Whenever there are lawyers that are genuinely defending the obvious criminal, with petty defense excuses - you just wonder how much sneaky indecency they have over real values.
@@digimaks it's lame rule ikr

Used to work at Best Buy and had this happen to us. Thieves were going along the 401 hwy and stopping at each best buy. I worked in loss prevention and we had the police waiting for them at the emergency exit. Was amazing.
@Cliff Thomas They had everything in there. It was PS3 consoles back when those were $500.

Why would they pick the fire exit that has an alarm?
+ImpulseOfSword ..all emergency exits are alarmed...
that’s the vibe when you walk into a room in dark souls and there’s a gank on both sides of the door
Can’t believe Costco would prosecute a shoplift in Seattle.

I worked at costco when they did that with 80 bottles of patron right into a getaway pickup.
I work at Costco so let me tell you how the security door works. You press it to open, it will siren and you have to wait for 15 seconds before you can open the door.. i surprise they had the balls to just stand there for 15 secs waiting while everyone watches them and hearing the siren
raidacaipo thanks for explaining that. I was curious why the siren was going for so long before they came out
That's almost guaranteed illegal in most cities building codes... Screams fire hazard.
Bet you don't works at Costco no mores!
"That's almost guaranteed illegal in most cities building codes... Screams fire hazard."
WTF are you talking about? That's a common type of fire door.
That's hilarious so those idiots stood there for 15 seconds with a siren going off and a stupid look on their face with arms full of stolen shit just to open it and run into the arms of the waiting cops!!?! That makes it way funnier!!
I work as loss prevention it’s always so satisfying when they run from me and PD is outside waiting for them. I hate these low life thieves so much
Have you ever accused innocent customers, and hated THEM, too?😮
@granmabern5283 what are you on?

When I was having a drug problem. My dealer showed me how to take TVs through the fire door just like this. My car was waiting outside with a driver. We did this 8 times at the same store.
I knew I was going to get caught and really didn't care. At number 9 is when they grabbed me and it was over.
We use to drive right to the closest pawnshop to get cash. Desperate people do desperate things.
