As a patron dined at the Hard Rock on the 1100 block of Market Street, the individuals were inside and had other things on their mind besides food. When the victim was not paying attention, they reached onto her purse and removed her wallet.
Within minutes, they left the restaurant and went to Macy’s where they used the credit cards and cash that were in the victims purse, to purchase items.The trio of thieves then paraded around center city, in front of security cameras, holding bags of fraudulently paid for merchandise. All three could be seen carrying bags of ill gotten gains.
Police said the theft happened at 1:47 PM on December 8, 2024. They just released this information today.
Police did not give a value as to how much the thieves put on the stolen credit card.
