They had identified Doris as a person of interest in a number of smash-and-grabs that occurred on April 18 and May 1, when car windows were broken at a popular dog park on Conroy Road, south of Hunt Club Road.

It is alleged that valuables, cash and credit cards were taken from purses stolen in the incidents. The cards were later used to make unauthorized purchases.
