The
suspect, 31-year-old Chad Robert Essman, was taken into custody by the
El Mirage Police Department, authorities said. An officer detained
Essman after he watched the suspect turn in multiple lottery tickets and
matched his description to an identity flyer given to police
departments. The first instance of the string of lottery ticket thefts
took place at a Chevron on Jan. 25, police said. A witness chased the
burglar attempting to get the tickets back. After knocking one of the
ticket display cases out, the witness was threatened by the burglar with
a black firearm before the burglar fled.
Three other burglaries
took place throughout February in Surprise, all involving a
similar-looking man, authorities said. The thefts happened at Circle Ks
around the same general area, all of which had security footage that was
given to authorities. Police were also notified that one of the stolen
tickets was being redeemed at a QuickTrip, 30 minutes after one of the
thefts happened, police said. After being arrested, Essman was confirmed
by authorities to be the individual in the security footage from the
stores that were robbed, police said. The suspect was also carrying all
of the shirts with him in a garbage bag upon arrest and was identified
by the witness of the first burglary in a photo lineup. Essman was
charged with armed robbery with a deadly weapon and burglary in the
third degree.
