CITY OF LOCKPORT: Police seek man suspected of using stolen credit cards

Staff Reports
Lockport Union-Sun & Journal

City police are looking for a man they believe may have used stolen credit cards around the city in August.

A Walnut Street woman told police she and a friend went to a neighbor’s house on Aug. 24 to have a beer about 10 p.m. and returned about half an hour later. The next day, the woman noticed two credit cards missing from her purse.

She told police she suspected the cards had been stolen the night before, because she had left the door unlocked when she left the house, the report said.

The woman contacted her credit card company and was told someone charged about $1,000 in merchandise to it that morning.

The woman’s friend told police she’d also left her purse in the apartment while they went to the neighbor’s house. About $100 in cash and three credit cards were reported stolen from her purse.

The cards were reportedly used at the Kwik Fill on South Transit Street on Aug. 25. Surveillance video shows the suspect, a white male wearing a black hooded sweatshirt, pulling up to the pumps in a green Ford Taurus.

Lockport Police Det. Lt. Scott Seekins said the video shows the man pumping gas, reportedly using one of the stolen credit cards.

The suspect is also seen inside the Kwik Fill, again using the card.

Seekins said the suspect tried to use the card at Walmart to purchase men’s jewelry, as well.

The suspect was also captured using one of the stolen cards at a Cornerstone Federal Credit Union ATM on South Transit Road.

Anyone with information about the suspect is asked to call the Lockport Police Department at 433-7700.
