Lexington, a beautiful city located in central South Carolina, is widely known for its serene landscapes, historic monuments, drool-valley restaurants, and most importantly, a community of residents thriving to maintain law and order. However, a recent incident has left the local law enforcement agency seeking the assistance of the locals.
Detailed account of the theft
In an unwelcomed incident that unfolded on July 6, at the renowned electronics store Best Buy, three alleged shoplifters created ripples in the otherwise calm city of Lexington.
