Crime Stoppers

02-19-2018 INFORMATION SOUGHT IN WALLET THEFT

Feb 19, 2018
Media Contact : Michele Cash, PIO

Polk County Sheriff's Office detectives are seeking the public's help in identifying a suspect who stole a wallet in Clermont.

On Monday, February 19, 2018, between 1:40 p.m. - 1:50 p.m., a victim was shopping at the La Isla Supermarket located at 9722 Highway 192 in Clermont. As she exited the store, she left her wallet in a shopping cart. A few moments later, a newer model gray, Hyundai Elantra pulls up and an unknown female suspect wearing a black top and gray shorts gets out of the passenger-side of the car and took the wallet. She went back into the car and left. 

The victim told detectives it's a black, Michael Kors wallet with cash, miscellaneous items, her military I.D., and her children's social security numbers.

If you have any idea who this suspect is, please contact Detective Pautz at 863-298-6200 or email apautz@polksheriff.org.
