Police Investigate Pocket Picking Incident at 7-Eleven

Police are searching for two suspects who they say picked the pocket of an elderly disabled man, then used his stolen credit cards to make purchases at Walmart.

It happened Tuesday at 1:30 p.m. at the 7-Eleven at 8521 Centreville Rd. when one of the suspects said he was 90 cents short on his purchase and asked for the money to make up the difference, Manassas Park Police reports show.

The victim went out to his car to get the money and realized his wallet was missing when he came back inside. 

The victim later told police he remembered feeling something brush his pants pocket, but didn't think anything of it at the time.

The two suspects ran away before the victim could return with the change.
