Rotterdam Police Searching for "Dancing Bandit"

Rotterdam police are asking for the public's help in identifying a man that acted as a distraction by dancing while another man stole $2,000 from Walmart.

Police say the pair paid cash for three laptops on Saturday but one of the men asked for it back claiming that he had overpaid. That's when the dancing bandit stepped in, in attempt to distract a confused cashier.

The man at the register, pocketed some of the cash and gave some back to the cashier, who didn't count it before putting it into the register. Walmart later determined that they were short $2,000.

Rotterdam police believe that the suspects are part of a traveling team of criminals.
