(Walhalla, SC)-------------------------------------The Oconee County Sheriff’s Office is seeking the public’s help today in an investigation into a theft, via a shoplifting, of almost $3,000.00 dollars in merchandise from the Ulta Beauty location in Hartwell Village.

The Sheriff’s Office is also seeking the public’s help in identifying two persons of interest in the investigation.

A Deputy from the Uniform Patrol Bureau responded to the incident location on Wednesday, August 29th to begin an investigation. The Deputy was informed, by an employee, that a man and a woman came into the store during the afternoon of Tuesday, August 28th and stole approximately $2,964.00 of merchandise. The man and woman left the store about 10 minutes after they first arrived.

The man was wearing a black long sleeved button down shirt and blue jeans. The woman was wearing a white short sleeved shirt and black shorts. The woman was also carrying a black tote bag.
