Kamloops RCMP trying to identify alleged purse snatcher

The Kamloops RCMP is hoping the public can help identify the suspect of a theft investigation.

It happened around 4 pm on Tuesday at a store in the 1400 block of Hillside Drive.

According to police, a woman was shopping with her purse in a cart when she briefly stepped away from it.

That’s when another woman allegedly took the purse from the cart, left the store and got into a black quad-cab GMC Sierra pickup.

Surveillance footage from the store caught a woman leaving with two purses and that’s who the RCMP have identified as a suspect.

She’s described as a Caucasian woman with long blonde hair who was wearing a dark blue top, light blue spandex capris, pink or purple flip flops and sunglasses at the time.

If you recognize the woman pictured, you’re urged to contact the Kamloops RCMP at 250-828-3000.
