Thieves in Nebraska managed to swipe thousands of dollars in merchandise from a vintage clothing store this summer, but police recently revealed they mostly made off with a bunch of shoes only for left feet.
The Lincoln Police Department responded to the store Exclusive Hype in Lincoln on Aug. 18 at 6:38 a.m. after a neighbor saw one of the store’s windows "had been shattered and contacted police along with the store owners," a police statement report provided to Fox News Digital stated.
Lincoln Crime Stoppers reported on its website that a VW Atlas was seen in security footage pulling up to the location at about 4 a.m. and three suspects exited the vehicle.

A similar crime unfolded in central Peru earlier this year, when three suspects stole more than 200 sneakers from a shoe store. The merchandise was valued at roughly $13,000, but the suspects only got away with shoes for right feet, Fox News previously reported. The thieves reportedly used a tricycle to escape that scene, police said.
