MANHATTAN — A woman used stolen credit cards to make purchases from three Upper West Side stores in May and June, according to the NYPD.
The woman first used a stolen credit card to make a purchase from a Lululemon store on Broadway and 75th Street on May 9 at about 6 p.m., police said.
The card came from a wallet stolen out of a 39-year-old woman’s purse, an NYPD spokeswoman said.
Then, on May 29, the thief used a credit card stolen from a 27-year-old woman to make purchases at a T.J. Maxx and Best Buy near Columbus Circle, the NYPD said.
Two weeks later, on June 13, the woman used a credit card taken from a 60-year-old woman to buy goods at a Duane Reade at Broadway near 76th Street at about 7:30 p.m., police said.
The suspect was described as 35 to 45 years old and standing 5-foot-6. She was last seen wearing a black dress, police said.
