You’ve ripped off someone’s credit cards, gone on a $2,000 spree at various suburban stores and the cops still haven’t caught you. Help ’em out!!
That was apparently the thinking of one woman, who in the course of using a stolen credit card got so swept up in the giant olive jars at Sam’s (we guess) that she dutifully posed for a photo to get her membership card.
We hope she enjoys her four-pound bottles of ketchup, because now police have a nice picture of her to pass around.
Her next move, we imagine: Using that stolen credit card to go wild at Glamour Shots.
The suspect is described as a black female, 30-40 years of age, 5-foot-7 to 5-foot-9 and weighing 160-170 pounds. She is said to look like she does in the friggin’ picture she had taken.
Crime Stoppers is offering up to $5,000 for information leading to her conviction, so if her face rings any bells, call 713-222-8477 or go to crimestoppers.org.
