Police Investigate Purse Thefts at West Hartford Restaurants

Police are looking for two women who stole credit cards from customers at Restaurant Bricco and Bartaco in West Hartford Center.

Police said two heavy-set women stole purses or credit cards out of purses that were left unattended in the bar area of the restaurants on March 1 and used the victims’ credit cards at Walmart, Staples and T.J. Maxx in Bristol, Marshalls in West Hartford and T.G.I. Fridays in Waterbury to buy gift cards, food and clothing.

One of the women was also captured on video at a T.J. Maxx Store in Maryland on March 8.

The women might have been in a silver four-door, mid-size sedan.
