Thousands In Valuables, Cash Stolen from Elderly Couple in Troy

The couple, from Georgia, went to eat at the Hardee’s off of U.S. Highway 231. It was around 9 a.m. during the breakfast rush Tuesday of last week. 

 

The suspect or suspects smashed the window of the couple’s Dodge caravan, stealing the woman’s purse while the victims were eating inside. 

 

Two cars were caught on surveillance. Police say the drivers of a dark colored sedan and a light colored sedan, possibly a Honda, used the victim’s credit card to fill up their gas tanks. This was at a gas station north of the Hardee’s. 

 

Whoever’s responsible has also been cashing thousands of dollars in checks out of a closed account. 

 

If you saw anything that Tuesday morning or have any information call Troy Police at 334- 566-0500 or Crimestoppers at 215-STOP.
