*Community Alert!* Tinley Park Police would like to alert the public to take precautions with their purses and personal belongings. There has been a recent series of purse thefts from customers. The suspects will enter a business and wait for the victim to either be distracted or take her attention from her purse. Once distracted, the subjects will take the victim’s purse and either leave the business. Charge cards are immediately used at other area businesses, usually in another jurisdiction. Elderly females are especially targeted. In the past incidents, suspects have entered employee locker/break areas and have taken purses/properly of store employees. Learn more....
