Deputies were called Wednesday (Jan. 11) to the Home Depot on Hall Road in Macomb Township. When they arrived, workers told them two men were inside hiding merchandise inside coats.

Both men passed the registers without paying and left the store, police said. They tried to get into a vehicle while being approached by deputies, but then took off on foot, according to
