Cheyenne Police are trying to catch a purse snatcher who broke into vehicles near Cheyenne Regional Medical Center on the night of September 30.

Officer Dan Long says an unknown suspect stole purses out of two vehicles that were parked near Evans Avenue and East 23rd Street.

"Both vehicles were locked, but the windows were actually broken on both vehicles," said Long. "I'm not sure where the purses were located, if they were in plain sight or not, but I always advise that if you have to leave items in your vehicle try to keep them out of sight, but preferably try to remove them from the vehicle when you leave."

Long is asking anyone with information about the crime to call Silent Witness at 638-TIPS. Callers may be eligible for a cash reward of up to $1000.
