Police are looking for a woman who entered the Kane Regional Hospital on McIntyre Road in Ross Township and allegedly stole a victim's wallet.
The same woman later used stolen credit cards from the wallet to make unauthorized purchases at several McKnight Road businesses in excess of $2,000.
"She was also dressed in a nurse's scrub uniform. At this time it's undetermined if she is a nurse or if she just dressed as a nurse to commit the crime," Allegheny County Police Detective Jarret Kaspryszyn said.
The fraudulent purchases included gift cards, clothes, Wii games and lots of cigarettes from places like K-Mart, Target, Giant Eagle and Home Depot.
