WALKER, Mich. — Walker police are searching for two people accused of stealing cologne and perfume from Ulta Beauty stores in Kent and Ottawa counties.

Police say they enter the stores with large bags, pick up several bottles from the displays, put them in the bags and leave the store. They leave the area in a small gray car that may be a Ford Focus.

The first suspect is described as a man in his mid-20s who is 6 feet tall and weighs about 190 pounds with a thin build and short hair. He was last seen in a puffy black coat, black Champion sweatpants, dark blue basketball shoes and a white watch. The man was carrying a dark blue leather bag with brown straps and bottom.

The second is a woman in her late 20s who is about 5-foot-6 with a medium build. She was last seen in a dark-colored knit hat, a gray hoodie with “SENIOR 2017” on the front, torn blue jeans, brown boots and used a TJ Maxx shopping bag.

Anyone with information on the suspects’ identities is asked to call Detective Bailey on the department’s tip line at 616-791-6788 or Silent Observer and reference incident No. 19-12195.
