John Ray Lomack has lived in the Seattle area for decades. But over the last few weeks, he has been spending his time doing things on the wrong side of the law. Although 55-year-old Lomack has been having trouble with the law since the 1980s, he was caught on surveillance camera robbing a downtown Seattle Target location when he tried to flee the store with a stolen 70-inch television worth more than $600.
Target staff report that Lomack has been robbing their store multiple times since October. According to reports, he had shoplifted from the Target twenty-two times and was finally caught and arrested when he tried to leave the store with the stolen television. Footage caught Lomack loading the large TV box into a shopping cart and wheeling it out of the Seattle store without evening attempting to pay for it. Since he began his shoplifting spree in October, he has stolen more than $6,000 worth of goods from that Target location alone.
