Authorities are on the lookout for a man who stole an elderly person’s motorized scooter and rode off with it through a Kroger parking lot.

There’s a $1,000 cash reward on the table for anyone with information about the thief that leads to his arrest.

It happened earlier this month, on April 9 around 3:15 p.m. at the Kroger location in Roseville. Officials say a man was spotted taking an 82-year-old’s scooter from inside the grocery store. He was seen taking off near Gratiot Avenue near 13 Mile Road, according to Local 4 and WXYZ reports on Thursday (April 22).

Surveillance footage captured the suspect wearing jeans, red shoes and a black- and gray-striped shirt when he hijacked the $3,000 Hover Round and took off. Authorities say the man is around 25 to 35 years old, approximately 6 feet tall and about 190 to 210 pounds, according Crime Stoppers of Michigan.
