Surveillance cameras caught the two men right in the act and police believe someone out there, knows who these men are.

Vandalia Rental Thieves Police believe the men knew what they were doing, knew what they wanted to steal and maybe knew they could get away with it.

But what they didn't know was camera's were rolling and in the end, cops believe they can catch these crooks, with your help.

Last Friday the two men walked into Vandalia Rental together and right away one man checks the isle for saw blades.

Meanwhile, as one man distracts the clerk, the other guy steals 230 saw blades worth more than $800.

Det. Scott Breisch says, "There's a number of things could have taken but went to that display and took saw blades. They're expensive, but easy to conceal. They were looking for them."

Police say the men may have hit Vandalia Supply before and they may have hit other places as well.

A lot of these people do this thing for living and maybe they need some saw blades this particular time.

So what would these men do with hundreds of saw blades, police believe they were selling them.

Maybe there's a contractor out there who know who these men are.

Store employees say it's frustrating when someone steals. Police say they're just glad that the business owners invested in a good surveillance system, so in the end, the crooks were caught on tape and will be put behind bars.
