The Lawrence Police Dept. is asking the public for help in regard to two recent church thefts.
The first theft occurred Dec. 22 at Cornerstone Baptist Church, 10700 E. 56th St. A male entered the church, and he took an employee’s purse and its contents. Church security cameras caught the male driving away in a dark Lincoln sedan. Several days later, some of the purse’s contents were discovered nearby. The contents were returned to the owner, but the cash and some other items are still missing.
A press release from the Lawrence Police Dept. describes the suspects as a tall male, mid-late 20s, with brown hair, unshaven facial stubble, wearing a baseball-style cap and driving an older Lincoln sedan.
Anyone who recognizes the suspect or anyone who has information should contact Crime Stoppers of Central Indiana by calling 317-262-TIPS.
