Rehoboth Police Investigate Credit Card Theft

On Tuesday, September 23, 2014, Rehoboth Police responded to M-Squared, 146 Rehoboth Avenue in reference to a theft of a credit card.  A store employee notified police that her credit card was stolen from her purse sometime between 7:00pm-7:30pm.  Rehoboth Police were able to view store surveillance and observed two black male suspects in their mid thirties to early forties, enter the location and engage the victim in conversation.  Shortly after entering the retail location, the black male suspect wearing a blue jacket, jeans, blue button down shirt and dark colored shoes enters and exits the rear employee area.  The suspect is then observed removing items from the victim’s purse located on the counter while the second black male, with a bald head and beard, wearing a plaid shirt and dark jeans distracts the victim near the front of the store.  It was determined that the suspects used the credit card at several locations in Rehoboth including CVS, Walgreens, Chick-Fil-A and Wawa where the suspects purchased items including several gift cards and food items.  Video surveillance was collected from each of the locations showing the suspects including these surveillance footage pictures collected from one of the locations.  Anyone with information on the identity of the suspects is asked to call Lt. William L. Sullivan of the Rehoboth Beach Police at (302) 227-2577.
