BOULDER, Colo. — Police are asking for the public’s help identifying two people accused of using a fraudulent credit card after a woman blacked out and woke up to find the card gone. It's unclear if those two incidents are related, police said.

Just before 1 a.m. on Dec. 14, 2018, a woman was dropped at her residence along the 800 block of 20th Street in Boulder. As she walked to her door, she blacked out and regained consciousness at 1:29 a.m., police said.

She said she remembered that a person was walking toward her, but doesn’t know if they ever made contact with her.

A week later on Dec. 21, she realized her credit card was missing and had been used fraudulently.

They obtained surveillance video of the credit card being used at Boss Lady Pizza on Dec. 18, which is located at 1129 13th St. Now, they are asking for the community’s help identifying the two people who were spotted fraudulently using the credit card.

Police said they do not know if these two incidents are connected.

Anyone with information is asked to call Det. Kurt Foster at 303-441-4329.

Those who have information, but wish to remain anonymous, may contact the Northern Colorado Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477. Tips may also be submitted through the Crime Stoppers website at crimeshurt.com. Anybody who submits tips through Crime Stoppers that lead to the arrest and filing of charges on a suspect may be eligible for a cash reward of up to $1,000.
