SEEKING PUBLIC ASSISTANCE TO IDENTIFY FEMALE PURSE THEFT SUSPECT
On December 4th, 2018 at about 10:38 AM a 71 year old female victim was using the car wash facility at South Forbes Street and Martin Street. At the same time a younger adult female was using the same facility. The female suspect was watching the victims actions and when she knew the victim was distracted, she entered her car and removed her purse and left the location.
