The Columbia County Sheriff's Office is looking for three men in connection with the theft of more than $2,000 from the Family Dollar Store on South Belair Road.

Deputies were called to the store January 12, where the manager reported the three suspects had picked up 6 gift cards it appeared they were purchasing.  Investigators say the suspects used a YouTube card to pay for the gift cards in separate transactions.  Two of the transactions were declined, while the four that were approved were each worth $500.

The manager later discovered the register was short $2,000.

The suspects were black.  Two were wearing black hoodies and black ball caps, while the third was wearing a black Adidas jacket and black beanie hat.

Call the Columbia County Sheriff's Office if you have any information that could help identify them.  (706) 541-5800.
