Police: Suspect went on shopping spree after stealing credit cards from NJ gym locker

MOUNT LAUREL, New Jersey (WPVI) -- Editor's Note: A previous version of this story included an incorrect photo of a suspect provided to Action News by police. Police now believe the fraud and theft incidents involve one suspect, not two.

Police in Burlington County, New Jersey are looking for a suspect who allegedly stole credit cards from a gym locker room and went on a shopping spree.

Police say it all began on July 7 between 10 a.m. and 11 a.m., when several credit cards were stolen from Life Time Fitness on Church Road in Mount Laurel.

One SIM card was also stolen from a phone.

From there police say the man went shopping using the stolen credit cards, looking for expensive items from big-name stores.

"The one victim's credit card was utilized at Apple in Cherry Hill for over $11,000 in electronics," said Officer Kyle Gardner.

Police say the men even attempted to buy a $23,000 Rolex watch from a jewelry store in Philadelphia. That purchase was declined.

The suspect hit other stores, including several Walmart, Saks Fifth Avenue in Bala Cynwyd and a Best Buy, according to police.

Some purchases were successful and others were not.

It's unclear if the suspect was a member of the gym or not.

Anyone with info should contact Mount Laurel police.
