900 block of Foothill Boulevard in La Cañada Flintridge, a woman reported that while she was shopping two women stole her wallet. Suspect No. 1 was described as White with blonde hair and wearing a white sweater. Suspect No. 2 was described as White with black hair, tall and thin in her mid-30s and wearing a black jumpsuit. 

The victim stated that her purse was sitting in the shopping cart when Suspect No. 2 began talking to her. The victim saw Suspect No. 1 walk near her shopping cart and reach for something near her purse; however, she was then distracted by Suspect No. 2 who was asking her about an item on the shelf at the store. When the two suspects walked away the victim immediately found her purse was missing. She attempted to use the “Find my phone” application but it did not work (her cellphone was in her purse). There was another victim who reported her wallet was stolen by two suspects that matched the descriptions of Suspects No. 1 and No. 2 in the store about the same time. The two suspects used the same tactics as with the first woman who had her purse stolen. 

The thefts occurred between 2:30 p.m. and 3 p.m.
