I also had my wallet stolen on Sunday while shopping at Marshall's on Transit Road.
ReplyDeletethe Lincoln ave women was me ! I also had called the store that the charges were made and they said if the person actually came to the counter that they would be able to get a good picture of them! the Michigan police are the ones that would have to actually investigate this seeing as it is out of New York State jurisdiction! They also over drafted my account, and my account is not even able to be over drafted! These people need to be stopped ! I do not even feel safe putting money in my bank account! What if it was over $5000 that I had in my account? The bank can only give back a certain amount!?
