Woman Stole Identity, Spent Thousands At Bike Shops: Police

WARMINSTER, PA — Police are seeking a woman they say stole another Pennsylvania woman's identity and used it to rack up thousands of dollars of purchases at two bicycle shops, including one in Warminster.

Pennsylvania State Police say the victim is a 29-year-old woman who lives in White Township, in Indiana County near Pittsburgh.

Between March 5-9, they say, a woman used a fake Pennsylvania ID with the victim's name to rent a storage unit on South Front Street in Philadelphia.

She also opened a Trek Bicycle credit card in the victim's name and spent $11,271.17 at two Trek Bicycle stores — one in Manayunk and one at 375 York Rd. in Warminster, police said.

The storage unit was later found by police but did not appear to have been used.

Anyone with information in the case is asked to contact state Trooper Sonny Halterman at 724-357-1960.
