Fox2: Stealing Spree Puts Chesterfield Man on Metro's Most Wanted
Police are seeking help in catching a suspect who took $550 worth of items from a woman's car and then used her credit card to buy Lotto tickets.
In Metro’s Most Wanted, the Chesterfield police are hot on the trail of a guy doing his Christmas shopping on someone else’s dime, and trying to get lucky as well.
It was sometime overnight on October 22nd, that police say this guy broke into a woman’s car and stole everything he could get his hands on. The stuff he got is worth about $550. But to add insult to injury, he also took the victim’s credit cards and went to a mobile station. Apparently he wasn’t taking all those cameras into account at every gas station in America.Â
Anyway, he tried to double down by using the stolen card to buy $220 worth of scratch off lottery tickets. No word if he won. Police ask that you take special notice of the unusual jacket he was wearing at the time.
