SUMMERVILLE, SC (WCSC) -Police are looking for Timothy and Mark Walker.
Timothy, 47 and Mark, 46 are wanted on a charge of property crime enhancement in connection with thefts from a department store in Summerville.
"They're involved in a shoplifting ring where they are going into stores in the North Main market area, shoplifting electronics and then going and pawning them," said Summerville Police Capt. Jon Rogers.
Investigators say the crimes happened in February 2010, and that the Walkers always went for the good stuff.
"High dollar stuff, $400 stuff, televisions and some camcorders, stuff like that," Rogers said. "It's something that's small enough to get out of the store and you're also going to get a fairly high return when you bring it to a pawn shop."
When captured, the brothers can each face up to ten years in prison if convicted.
"Once we looked at their prior arrest records, there were just pages upon pages and we haven't been able to get our hands on them," said Rogers.
Timothy Walker stands 6'1" and weighs about 190 lbs. Mark Walker stands 6'2" and weighs about 200 lbs.
Cops believe they are still in the Tri-County area. Their last known address was on Kay Street in Charleston.
