The theft spree was reportedly fueled by relationship drama, as the suspect discovered his girlfriend with another man after the thefts.

Complex writes:

“Surveillance footage reportedly shows the suspect hitting one store, then another, within a tight 20-minute window.

Authorities say the first stop happened around 7:43 p.m. at a Publix in the Belle Terre Crossings shopping center, where the man allegedly walked out with about $1,575 worth of beef and lamb. Less than half an hour later, he allegedly struck again at a second Publix near Island Walk, this time making off with roughly $2,000 worth of pork, top sirloin, brisket, tenderloin, and a few personal care items for good measure."

The 30-year-old man discarded most of the stolen meat rather than keeping or selling it, resulting in significant losses for the stores.
