In the span of one week, there have been at least two purse snatchings in the parking lot of Asia Times Square located at 2615 W. Pioneer Pkwy.

Shortly after the theft, the two men shown in the photo used the victim’s credit card in Fort Worth. The suspects may be driving a dark colored Chrysler 300 and a black Toyota Camry.

The suspects are believed to have committed multiple thefts in Arlington and Irving.

Crime Stoppers is offering a cash reward of up to $1000.00 for information leading to the arrest of these suspects. Crime Stoppers: 972-988-8477(TIPS) or www.GPCrimeStoppers.org
