RCMP think stolen card, car break-in connected
Nanaimo RCMP are asking for the public’s help in identifying a man who is believed to have used a stolen credit card.
A woman had returned to her car in the Skinner Street parkade in Nanaimo on Aug. 13 and found it had been broken into, RCMP said.
Her wallet, cellphone and some clothing were missing.
Before she was able to cancel her credit cards, she learned that a $98 transaction had been made on her MasterCard at the Terminal Avenue 7-Eleven, police said.
Police have released a photograph of a suspect from surveillance footage.
Anyone with information on the identity of the man in the photo is asked to contact Nanaimo RCMP at 250-754-2345 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
