Seattle Times Pictures of the Year 2010

April 23: An employee with mall security pursues a suspected shoplifter at Pacific Place in Seattle as the young man heads down the up escalator from the second floor. On the lower level, the suspect dropped the items from Brookstone and fled the building without being caught. "While I was kneeling in front of a Pacific Place window display photographing Kardashian fashions there was a commotion from the Brookstone store to my right. A mall security officer was pursuing the suspected shoplifter. I rotated and took two frames. The race was won by the fleetest, but not before discarding the items taken. The suspect escaped." - Alan Berner
