Chattanooga police are looking for two suspects who are using credit cards that were stolen from a vehicle in the downtown area, according to police spokeswoman Officer Rebecca Royval.
The auto burglary occurred Feb. 27 at 1 Broad Street between 2 and 5:30 p.m. The victim was unaware that her purse had been stolen until she received a call from Fort Oglethorpe police stating that they had located her purse in their jurisdiction.
When she retrieved her purse, she noticed several things missing, including a debit card, a wallet, cash and credit card information. The next day, she received a phone call from her bank that her debit card had been used at Shoe Carnival and Home Depot, both on Gunbarrel Road.
Investigators with the Chattanooga Police Department received photos of the two suspects as they used the stolen credit cards at Shoe Carnival and Home Depot. The white female suspect is wearing a brown leather jacket and jeans and has brown hair. The white male suspect is wearing a dark short-sleeved T-shirt with writing on it, jeans, and has gray hair and a beard.
Anyone that can identify the suspects or who has information that can help in the case can call Crime Stoppers at 698-3333. The confidential call could make you eligible for a reward of up to $1,000.
