Union City police were called to Lowes, on West Reelfoot Avenue, to investigate a report of theft.

At the scene, officers spoke with a Loss Prevention employee, who stated the theft occurred on the night of January 24th.

The employee stated two unknown black males entered Lowes and were seen on camera with two 8,000 watt generators, and a 14,000 btu kerosene heater on a cart.
