Spartanburg County investigators have released surveillance-style video of two people they want to track down, hoping someone in the community can put a name to either face. The footage comes from an incident at the Target store on Warren H. Abernathy Highway, and deputies say the pair may have information that could help their case.

The video was taken just before 4:30 p.m. on October 2, according to WYFF, which first reported that the Spartanburg County Sheriff's Office posted the clip on Facebook. The station reports that the sheriff's office released the video specifically in hopes that the public can help identify the man and woman shown in it.

Anyone who recognizes either individual, or who has information that could help investigators identify them, is asked to email [email protected]. Beyond the location, the timestamp, and that email contact, the station's report does not detail what prompted the investigation or whether either person is considered a suspect or simply a potential witness.

A Familiar Pattern at Upstate Target Stores

This is not the first time the sheriff's office has turned to the public for help identifying people connected to a Target investigation. In a separate case, deputies previously said two individuals they posted pictures of may have had information that could assist with an ongoing investigation tied to a Target in Boiling Springs, according to WYFF.

That request, covered in a different WYFF report, described the sheriff's office posting pictures of a man and a woman and asking the public to help identify them, with anyone having information directed to email [email protected] or call the sheriff's office directly, as reported by WYFF. An even earlier case saw deputies seek help identifying a single person pictured in connection with a separate ongoing investigation out of the Boiling Springs Target, as noted by WYFF.

Those earlier cases are distinct from the October 2 incident on Warren H. Abernathy Highway, and the available reporting does not tie them together beyond showing a recurring pattern of the sheriff's office asking the public for help identifying people tied to incidents at Target locations. No further details about the nature of the current incident, the identities of those involved, or any potential charges have been released.
