Carson City sheriff's investigators seek suspect who stole purse at Walmart
The Carson City Sheriff’s Office Investigation Division is asking for information in a petit larceny that occurred in Walmart in the 3200 block of Market Street.
On Sept. 4, 2019, a petit larceny occurred inside Walmart. A Walmart employee went on lunch and left her purse near the counter. The victim returned and found that her purse was no longer there. Another employee overhead the conversation about the stolen purse and said a purse was turned into the lost and found. The victim retrieved her purse and noticed several items were missing from inside the purse.
Investigators obtained video surveillance from Walmart. A female suspect was seen on camera taking the purse. The female suspect was wearing a tank top with jean shorts and appears to have a tattoo on her right arm. She was also pushing a cart with a small white dog inside.
