UNC Police is asking the public for help in their investigation of a series of credit card thefts from different medical research buildings on south campus earlier this month.
The department tweeted out photos on Tuesday morning, asking for helping identifying two people of interest in relation to the investigation.
According to an Alert Carolina post made on December 5, the thefts occurred during business hours on Wednesday December 4 in MacNider Hall, Beard Hall, the Bioinformatics Building and the Genetic Medicine Research Building among others. The post says credit cards were taken from unsecured offices and cubicles throughout the buildings.
Anyone seeing any suspicious activity anywhere on campus is reminded to call 911 immediately. UNC Police also encourage people to use smart security practices while in a work environment, like putting away visible valuables, keeping a record of all keys that have been issued and no admitting strangers into places of work.
If you have any information about the individuals, call the UNC Police Department at (919) 962-8100.
