It might have been a clean sweep if it weren't for the video surveillance footage.

The incident occurred at about 3 p.m. on March 27.

The surveillance footage shows the man pushing a shopping cart and talking on a cellphone -- the vacuum visible in his cart.

Police are asking anyone with information regarding the theft to call Crime Stoppers at 800-220-TIPS. All calls will remain confidential, police said.
