On the evening of Wednesday, December 11th, a silver 2018 Toyota was broken into, and a wallet was removed from it, while the car was parked at the Poinciana Community Park at 5109 Allegheny Road.
The victim said the wallet had been hidden under the front passenger seat and the car was locked. When she returned to her car, she discovered that the front passenger window was broken and the wallet was missing.
Later she discovered that her credit card had been used at a Publix store.
Security video of that transaction at Publix was recovered, and the man who used the card is pictured in the gray shirt and blue jeans.
