Investigator Obert Wiltsie said there is evidence to suggest the victim’s credit card number was obtained and used Tuesday shortly before 7:30 p.m. at New Dixie Mart 9 on Julian R. Allsbrook Highway. It has also been used in other jurisdictions.

The victim in case still has the original credit so investigators are trying to determine whether the card was cloned or the number skimmed, Wiltsie said.

He said a couple of hundred dollars was charged to the card before the fraud was caught.

Anyone with information is encouraged to contact the police department at 252-533-2810, Wiltsie at 252-533-2823, or Halifax County Crimestoppers at 252-583-4444.
