Halton Regional Police are looking for three suspects after a bank card was stolen in Acton and used to withdraw money from the victim’s account.
Police say as a woman was leaving Giant Tiger shortly after noon on Saturday (Jan. 18), she was followed by two suspects. A third suspect walked in front of the woman, forcing her to stop suddenly. At that point, police say the suspects behind the woman stole the card from her purse.
