MIDDLEBURG HEIGHTS, Ohio — A Cleveland man, 41, and a Brook Park man, 29, were cited and given court dates after they stole at least $375 in gift cards from Amazon, 6895 Engle Road.

An Amazon security guard reported the thefts Dec. 29. She said the two men were former Amazon employees. Presumably, they were still working at Amazon at the time of the thefts.

Security video showed the older man slip a $100 gift card into his clothes on Sept. 23. The man gave the card to a family member who lived with him.

On Oct. 14, the man stole a $25 gift card and gave it to the Brook Park man.

On Oct. 31, the Cleveland man snatched a $20 gift card and sent it to someone in Puerto Rico.

Meanwhile, on Oct. 1, the Brook Park man stole a $230 gift card.

The security guard believes the men stole additional gift cards, but she didn’t have video evidence.

She said she interviewed the Cleveland man about the thefts, but he denied stealing the gift cards.

However, the Brook Park man, when confronted, admitted stealing the gift cards and implicated the Cleveland man.
