Mulberry Fraud Suspects

Jan 30, 2019
Media Contact : Sherrie Morgan, PIO

PCSO is looking for these two suspects who used a stolen debit card to make a purchase at the Publix at 2040 Shepherd Road in Mulberry.

It happened on Wednesday, January 30, 2019 around 2:51 p.m. The suspects used the victim’s MidFlorida bank card and then attempted to use multiple cards, which were declined. The victim did not recognize the suspects, but we’re hoping you might. 

If you have any information, please contact Detective Leblanc at 
863-292-3300 or call Heartland Crime Stoppers at 1-800-226-TIPS (8477) to remain anonymous. 

You could be eligible for a reward if your information leads to an arrest. You may also visit www.heartlandcrimestoppers.com to provide a tip.
