Mod Squad Teams with Shoppers to Nab Thief
In a Los Angeles department store a middle aged woman shoplifts while a young security unit, the Mod Squad, blends in as ordinary shoppers. Mary, a 20s agent, stops the thief outside the store and escorts her to the security director. Agents emphasize non threat posing and pursuit tactics. They dress to blend in and discuss methods to deter running suspects.

Dwain Spencer notes excitement over better identification of physical evidence and the lineage from Ranger and Surveyor missions to Mars in developing new techniques.
