Windsor police are hoping someone can identify two people seen on security camera stealing a running vehicle, and then using the victim's credit cards.
It began shortly after 6 a.m. Thursday at a gas station on Walker Road and Foster Avenue. The victim left their vehicle running while running into the store. The vehicle had the victim's wallet in it.
Shortly after, two suspects arrived in a newer model sedan. One of the suspects got out, got into the unattended vehicle, and drove off in it with the second suspect following.
About an hour later, police say the victim's credit cards were fraudulently used to purchase items at two locations on Tecumseh Road East near Jackson Park.
The first suspect is described as a tanned, tall male with a medium build, wearing a black hoodie, dark blue jeans, and a black medical mask.
The second suspect is a White male of average height and build. He wore a white and grey Puma zip-up sweater, beige pants, a black Puma baseball hat, and a white-blue medical mask.
The suspect vehicle is a newer-model, purple or dark blue Audi sedan.
The stolen vehicle is described as a silver 2014 Honda Civic, with plate number CYES090 and a dent on the rear driver’s side.
Police have released surveillance camera footage and have asked the public to take a look.
