On January 10 and February 12, Seguin’s next David Blaine made a stop at Walmart for a quick magic show. Sadly, only he knew about the performance.

The pictured magician quick changed employees of Walmart out of a total of $2700. Quick changing is when a suspect uses a slight of hand trick while counting out their change to pocket money. The suspect will count out the change showing the employee that he was short changed while he uses his other hand to pocket a portion of the money.

“Both a magician & a fashionista- this individual changed for his performance and is pictured during both incidents.

“If you recognize this individual or have any further information regarding this incident, please contact Det. Schramm at 830-379-2123 so he can book him… for his next magic performance, of course.

“3/17 Update:

“It looks like our Walmart magician doesn’t keep his performance local.

“Our post caught nationwide attention. Due to the amount of shares & media coverage, law enforcement agencies from Georgia, Tennessee, Rhode Island, South Carolina, and Virginia contacted SPD regarding similar cases with our newly famous magician.

“Our magician keeps this performance the same across the country:

-Enters a retail store (such as Walmart) to make a wire transfer or return a high value item.

-When the cashier gives the cash to the suspect, he claims he was not given the proper change back.

-The suspect begins counting the change back, while palming the rest.

-While counting the change back, the suspect uses various distraction techniques on the cashier.

“Thanks to everyone who shared our post, we are working with multiple agencies on making an identification.

“This investigation is currently on going.

“For media inquiries, please contact Officer Wallace at 830-865-6409.
