FRANKLIN-The Franklin Police Department is asking for assistance from the public in identifying a suspect responsible for the theft of goods from Wal-Mart.

At 11:34 p.m. on June 9, a man entered Wal-Mart on Armory Drive and placed two Sharp 42-inch LCD televisions worth $1,596 into a shopping cart. The suspect then left through an emergency exit and left in a vehicle parked just outside the door.
