Officers say a group of three to five men wearing masks ran a stolen truck into the back of a City Gear apparel store on Telephone Road around 4 a.m. on Saturday.
The men then drove off. Immediately after, a tow truck driver followed them. The driver told 13 Eyewitness News he thinks the suspects saw him following them and got nervous and crashed the truck they were driving into a tree.
The suspects then ran off on foot, leaving the truck and the stolen loot behind.
Most, if not all, of the merchandise was recovered.
The suspects are still at large.
