Broken window, stolen purse
8:03 p.m. — 100 Block of Palm Harbor Parkway. Larceny from Auto. A victim stated that she parked her SUV in the parking lot of European Village to go running on the paved sidewalk. When she returned about 45 minutes later she discovered an unknown suspect had smashed the front passenger window and stolen her purse. She had placed her purse (valued at $60) on the floorboard in front of the passenger seat. The car alarm was still active but did not have a sensor for broken glass.
The victim stated that the purse contained a wallet (valued at $20) containing $200, about five credit cards, her driver’s license, an address book and an iPhone.
No latent fingerprints could be detected; there was a thin layer of dust on the door which had not been disturbed.
The victim later advised that her card had been used twice in Daytona Beach, at Burger King and then a gas pump. She noticed her financial institutions to stop any further transactions.
