LEWISTON, Maine - Police are searching for a man accused of shoving an electric guitar in his pants and walking out of a store.
Police say the theft occurred last week and they're looking for three men. One shoved a Fender Stratocaster in his pants and pulled a sweatshirt over the top. The other two acted as lookouts.
All three can be seen on footage from video surveillance.
Strangely enough, the music shop has seen the method before. A man did the same thing in 2006 but was caught as he tried to walk out.
