A woman who recently purchased diapers, with a stolen credit card, has reportedly struck again at the same store.

The first theft occurred Aug. 20, inside the Target located at 1850 Jonesboro Road in McDonough, according to Henry County Police Maj. Jason Bolton.

"The victim lost his credit card at the Target," he said. "At [5:39 p.m.], it was used by a slender black female, with a baseball cap on, to purchase two large boxes of Luvs diapers. [She] earned a $5 Target gift card, used the stolen debit card at the ATM, and made two withdrawals totaling $700."

The major said the unidentified fraud suspect came back to the Target at 7:30 p.m., Oct. 2, and bought baby wipes with the gift card.

Anyone with information on the woman's identity or whereabouts, is asked to contact Police Detective Laura Moretti at (770) 288-8388, or by FAX at (770) 288-8323, or by e-mail at lmoretti@co.henry.ga.us.
