Costco supervisor charged with first-degree theft
Costco supervisor David Norman Hansen Jr., 36, has been charged with first-degree theft, accused of exploiting a loophole in the warehouse giant’s cashier system and stealing nearly $13,000 in cash from a store in Tukwila. In early February, Tukwila police responded to the Costco Wholesale store at 400 Costco Drive. A store manager and a loss-prevention officer had launched an investigation into more than two-dozen fraudulent transactions allegedly performed by Hansen, according to charging papers. Hansen would allegedly credit customers with coupon rebates, then pocket the cash rebates without the customers’ knowledge. In some of the transactions, Hansen allegedly chose random product item numbers from store products with coupons, and then would choose random membership numbers to enter the rebates, the papers say. He was able to access the till using his supervisor pass code.
