Madera police are asking residents to help them put names to two faces caught on surveillance video using stolen credit cards around the city. Investigators say they have a man in a black hat and Jordan Brand hoodie, and a woman in a black Chicago White Sox hat and all-black hoodie, but no leads yet on who either one actually is.
According to YourCentralValley.com, the Madera Police Department is “asking for the help of the community to identify two credit card fraudsters.” The outlet reports that the man was wearing a black hat and a Jordan Brand hoodie, while the woman wore a black Chicago White Sox hat along with an all-black hoodie of her own.
As of the report, investigators still had not been able to put names to either suspect. Per the same account, anyone who recognizes the pair or has information is asked to call the Madera Police Department at 675-4220.
Not the First Time Madera Has Turned to the Public
This isn't the first time Madera police have leaned on tipsters to crack a stolen-card case. Back in November 2022, officers said a suspect was wanted after allegedly using stolen credit cards at a local business, with that individual also caught on a security camera, as reported by KMPH. In that case, too, the department directed tipsters to call 675-4220.
In a separate Madera investigation, police sought help identifying male subjects caught on a local ATM’s camera after they allegedly siphoned more than $2,000 from victims’ bank accounts. Yahoo News reported that $2,500 was stolen from bank accounts in that incident, with police asking anyone with information to call a different department line, 559-675-4200.
There's no evidence tying either of those earlier cases to the pair sought this week, and investigators have not released details on when or where the latest alleged card fraud took place. For now, the identities of the man in the Jordan Brand hoodie and the woman in the White Sox cap remain unknown, and Madera police are counting on the public to fill in the blanks.
