The New Castle County Police are currently searching for suspects involved in the theft from a vehicle in the community of Collins Park.

(New Castle, Del.-19720) In February, New Castle County Police responded to a home in the 200 block of Adele Place in Collins Park for the theft from a car left unsecured during the overnight hours.

Officers arrived and learned the victim received a telephone call from her credit card company regarding a fraudulent transaction.  After the call her husband went to the car to retrieve her wallet and found the car ransacked and her wallet missing. Upon further observation, the victim also realized a ring left inside the vehicle was also taken.

An officer responded to the gas station located in the 2000 block of New Castle Avenue and retrieved surveillance footage of the two suspects found using the credit card.

The first suspect is described as an African-American male, 22-28 years of age, black hair, red or orange jacket with fur and black athletic pants and black shoes.
