PLEASANT HILL -- Police in Pleasant Hill late Wednesday confirmed the arrest of two suspects who had allegedly stolen enough merchandise from a Target store to fill six shopping carts.

In a Facebook post from late Wednesday evening, Pleasant Hill police said an officer patrolling the parking lot for a Target store was flagged down and told three female suspects had piled items into multiple shopping carts and left the Target without paying. The location appeared to be in the Pleasant Hill Shopping Center on Contra Costa Boulevard

 The post also included a photo showing the items crammed into multiple shopping carts that police said were recovered from the suspects' vehicle, including clothing, toys, a knife set and two Vizio televisions.

Both suspects were booked into county jail on grand theft charges. Police did not say whether they found the third suspect.
