Credit Card Theft May Be Linked To Assault: Police Seek Help

BOULDER, CO -- Boulder police are asking for the public's help in identifying two suspects who fraudulently used a credit card at Boss Lady Pizza on Dec. 18. Officials suspect the duo may have been involved in an assault that occurred several days earlier.

On Dec. 14, 2018 at 12:55 a.m. a woman was dropped off at her home in the 800 block of 20th Street in Boulder. She blacked out as she was walking to her door, and regained consciousness at 1:29 a.m. According to police reports, the last thing that the woman remembered before losing consciousness was a person walking towards her. She did not know if they ever made any contact with her.

A week later, on Dec. 21, 2018, the victim realized that her credit card was missing and had been used fraudulently. Surveillance video had previously been obtained of the credit card fraudulently being used at Boss Lady Pizza, at 1129 13th St., on Dec. 18, 2018.

It is unknown at this time if the two incidents are connected.

Police are asking for community assistance to identify the two individuals seen fraudulently using the victim’s credit card. Anyone with information is asked to call Detective Kurt Foster at 303-441-4329. Those who have information but wish to remain anonymous may contact the Northern Colorado Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
