Abingdon
Police Department
For Immediate
Release
On
Thursday, January 3, 2019, at approximately 4:15pm, the Abingdon Police
received a report of a stolen purse from Taco Bell, located at 495 Cummings
Street in Abingdon. The victim was traveling through Virginia and stopped for dinner
at the restaurant. When she got back on the road, she realized that she
left her purse hanging on the back of a chair in the restaurant. She
immediately contacted Taco Bell and spoke to the manager, who stated the purse
was no longer hanging on the chair. The manager reviewed their security
system and obtained video footage of an unidentified male subject taking the
purse and exiting the restaurant. The purse was a Michael Kors backpack style
purse, which contained cash, checks, and credit cards.
Abingdon
Officers viewed the video to obtain a description of the suspect who took the
purse. The male suspect is described as 5’10”-6’0” tall, dark hair, slim build,
and sideburns. He was wearing a black jacket, grey sweatpants, and black/blue
high-top shoes. The female that was with the male is described as about 5’5”,
tall, slim build, and long blondish hair. The suspects left in an older model
maroon Jeep Cherokee with Virginia tags.
