Delray Beach Police are looking for three people who stole a woman’s purse and used her credit cards. 

Police say the purse was stolen from the woman’s 2006 Ford Mustang at the LA Fitness in Delray Beach. 

Delray Beach Police spokeswoman, Dani Moschella said similar crimes have also been reported at the gym and thefts from gym lockers. 

Moschella said when the woman came back outside from working out she saw her door handle had been messed with and her purse was missing. 

The three suspects went to a Target in Deerfield Beach and spent over $3,000. 

People coming out of the gym were surprised to hear about the theft. 

Bob and Lori Bachner said they always are on alert: “We put a lock on our locker, we make sure our car doors are closed and an alarm on the car and make noise.”

Police are warning people to change up their routine and to always remember to never leave valuables in their cars, even if it is locked. 

Police think the three suspects could be from Broward County and if anyone has any information they can contact Delray Beach Police Det. Paul Pitti at (561) 243-7895 or Palm Beach County Crime Stoppers at (800) 458-TIPS.
