The victim’s wife told WNCN that her husband recognized the suspect because he is a known thief.
“He knows the guy is a thief. He’s been there, he’s seen him in the store before,” she said. “And what he told me was that sometimes the guy will buy one or two items so he has a receipt, and then he’ll add more stuff to his cart and flash the receipt.”
The suspect, who is still at large, is described as a black male about 6 feet tall.
The suspect fled in a white Hyundai Sonata, Hillsborough Police said.
Gary Rasor celebrated his 83rd birthday while he was being treated for his injuries but he ultimately passed away on December 1.
