Two unidentified men are wanted by Petaluma police after a brazen daylight theft at a local home improvement store, authorities said. According to the Petaluma Police Department, the suspects allegedly lifted nearly $1,500 worth of goods from Friedman’s Home Improvement Center. Police responded to the call on March 14, around 5:50 PM, just ten minutes after the incident occurred.

"The monetary loss to the store was calculated to be just under $1500.00," police officials disclosed in a statement acquired by the source.
