Flagstaff Police Searching For A Suspect In A Credit Card Theft

Flagstaff Police are looking for a suspect in connection with a theft of a credit card from an elderly man in late October. Authorities say a male targeted an elderly man in the Safeway store on Highway 89 back on October 28th. The suspect followed the man out to the parking lot and asks him for change for a 20-dollar bill. Somehow during the discussion, the suspect obtains the elderly man’s credit card. The suspect then leaves in a silver or grey colored minivan and goes to the Walmart on Huntington Drive and uses the elderly man’s card to buy gift cards. The victim remembers the man having some sort of accent, but wasn’t sure what it was. If you information on the suspect, or his whereabouts, Call Flagstaff Police at (928) 679-4085.
