SHEFFIELD LAKE — Sheffield Lake police are hoping security camera photos from the Wal-Mart at Chestnut Commons in Elyria can help them identify individuals who stole a purse from a car at a city park.
According to Capt. Tony Campo, the purse was taken Monday from a car at Lakewood Beach park.
A man and a woman used credit cards taken in the theft to purchase $209 worth of merchandise that night at Wal-Mart, he said. Among the items purchased were beverages, a booster seat, diapers and clothing and undergarments.
Security cameras caught the man, woman and two children — an infant in a carrier and a toddler — at the register and exiting the store.
Anyone with information on the couple’s identity is asked to call Sheffield Lake police at 949-7131.
