A search of their vehicle revealed a brand-new generator, which was determined to have been stolen from the San Rafael Home Depot prior to the Kmart theft. Suspected methamphetamine and paraphernalia were located as well. It was learned the thefts were committed by the display of random receipts while passing through checkouts without paying.
