Update: Claw machine returned to St. Augustine Walmart

Jacksonville, FL — Three men have been identified following the theft of a claw machine from a Walmart on U.S. 1 in St. Augustine.

St. Johns County Deputies say on March 12th, a repair man arrived to service the claw machine at the store when he noticed it was missing.

A Walmart employee told Deputies that someone called the store and said they were picking up the broken claw machine for repairs.  They reviewed surveillance video, and Deputies said three people were seen taking the machine.  They were not repairmen.

The legitimate repairman told Deputes that a similar incident happened in Gainesville. The men were seen driving an older, white Ford F-150.
