Theft from Vehicle – Shattering Window at Fitness Center

On Wednesday between 10:30 am and 11:00 am, two vehicles at a fitness center in the 700 block of Edison Furlong Road had their side windows shattered in the parking lot of the club. 

Women’s purses and pocketbooks that had been in plain view were stolen.

In one, the thief took $80 in cash and a driver’s license, and from the other, $260 in cash and a driver’s license.

Police are warning people to hide purses and pocketbooks before arriving at a fitness center or other similar place.

In addition to the theft of the personal property, the victims now have to protect themselves from future identity theft crimes, which is an extremely tedious process, police said.
