The victim is a former cop, which just shows anyone can be a target.
The crook broke into the car parked in a driveway, used the garage door opener to get inside. The crook broke into the car parked inside the garage and made away with a purse. All this happened while the family was home asleep.
Springs Police showed 11 News surveillance video from the Wal-Mart on 8th Street in Colorado Springs. The woman was shown on tape leaving the store with a cart full of groceries.
"Some of the things she purchases are men's boxer shorts and diapers," said Detective Owen Scott.
The $200 she spent, Springs Police said, was using someone else's credit card. That credit card that was stolen out of a woman's car that was parked inside a closed garage
Detective Scott says there's been a rash of car break-ins in the Rockrimmon neighborhood. The crooks are stealing purses and credit cards from the inside the cars and then going on a shopping spree.
