Someone apparently did some hefty grocery shopping on someone else's dime in Murfreesboro.
The victim called police after realizing that someone had used her husband's check card and racked up more that $4,900 in charges from two Publix locations in Murfreesboro. The charges were found to be 47 minutes apart, according to police.
Reports indicate the Publix on New Salem Highway at Saint Andrews Drive has high quality video footage of the transaction taking place. Police are now investigating the fraud case that could also be tied to charges on the victims check card in Miami, Florida.
In an unrelated case, a woman who recently visited Barfield Park believes that her cards were stolen while she was enjoying the peaceful day. She said that one card was used at TJ Max, but denied. Another card had been used at Target that added up to $1,300. That purchase was approved.
The victim canceled her cards, but no one has been apprehended.
