NEW ORLEANS - Police are looking for a pair of thieves who stole a television from a pawn shop and then immediately pawned it at the same store.

According to a release from the New Orleans Police Department, the man and woman were seen entering the business in 1600 block of Newton Street last Thursday. After the two entered the building, they made their way to the electronics aisle and removed a TV from the shelf.
