JONESBORO, Ark. – A rash of recent car break-ins throughout Jonesboro has people on edge.
Jonesboro police are currently looking for two suspects who are persons of interest in a credit card theft investigation, and this comes after a string of car break-ins Tuesday night near Emerson Funeral Home.
Austin Morgan is a detective with the Jonesboro Police Department. He said when thieves get into cars, they look for something.
“If there are credit cards or debit cards in the car or firearms or anything like that, people will target that and then if there are credit cards or debit cards, they will immediately take them to a gas station or someplace where they think they can try to get some money or use the card,” Morgan said.
Police want people to come forward if they know anything about the two suspects and hope people will learn from others and keep valuables indoors and doors locked.
Another important tip is to keep track of your spending so that if something happens you can spot anything irregular on your account.
