Incident: On April 14, 2015 at around 4:00 p.m. a woman shopping at a business on King George Road was distracted and her wallet stolen from her purse. A female suspect distracted the victim by asking her questions regarding her opinion on some merchandise. The suspect asked the victim to retrieve some pepper off a shelf for her. While the victim grabbed the merchandise from the shelf it is believed that the suspect reached into a partially unzipped purse and removed a black ladies wallet containing identification, credit cards and cash. The victim began to telephone credit card companies to cancel the accounts.
