Police seek help in identifying credit card suspect

Bordentown police are asking for the public's help in their search for a woman who they say used stolen credit cards to make about $10,000 worth of purchases at several stores, including one in Manalapan.

Police said the woman also gave a fake Lakewood address to the clerk at the Manalapan Circuit City while he was processing her order, so they believe she could be from the Monmouth or Ocean County area.The credit cards belonged to two Lebanon, Pa. residents who stayed at a hotel in Bordentown on Dec. 1 and 2 because their teen-aged daughters were playing in a soccer tournament at the high school in Pemberton, police said.When the parents returned to their homes, they were contacted by representatives of the credit card companies who inquired about numerous, suspicious transactions, police said.That's when the victims realized several of their cards and small amounts of cash were missing from their wallets.
