The pair walked into the Tilden Ridge Drive store at about 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 14, said Tilden Township police in a statement. 

Once inside, the suspects walked around the store gathering "chemical items to include but not limited to bleach and motor oil," then dumped the liquids "all over the floors" before leaving in a silver car, the department said. 

The mess created a hazard for shoppers and employees, police said, but no injuries were reported. 

Investigators are seeking the duo responsible for the bizarre incident. Suspect one is described as an older white man who was wearing sweatpants and a white Macungie K9 Police hoodie. Suspect two is said to be a younger white man wearing black pants and a black "Snap-On" brand hoodie.
