Suspects in Scottsdale thefts sought

The Scottsdale Police Department is seeking the identities of two women wanted for questioning in reference to multiple thefts in the East Valley. The female suspects have charged thousands of dollars in merchandise on stolen credit cards.

The women have been known to enter employee areas of stores using the excuse of needing to use the restroom. While in the employee area another suspect steals employee’s wallets. The women immediately head to other stores such as CVS, Wal-Mart, Target, and Walgreen’s to charge thousands of dollars of merchandise (mostly baby items) and gift cards.

Crimes have occurred at retail clothing stores, yoga studios, and tanning salons. Scottsdale PD is working closely with other East Valley cities that have encountered these suspects.

There are two cars involved, a 90s model white Chevy Lumina 4-door and a mid-2000s black Toyota Avalon.
