The suspects were seen on surveillance footage at the Nazareth Pike store in Bethlehem Township targeting elderly female shoppers with their purses in the top basket of the shopping cart around 1:35 p.m. on Wednesday, April 13, police said in a release on Thursday, June 2.

The suspects followed one elderly shopper for several aisles before stealing another woman’s wallet, which was more easily accessible, authorities said.

The suspects then left the store while concealing the wallet in a purple plastic file folder and drove away in a dark-colored sedan.
