Local mom tracks down, confronts suspect who allegedly stole her credit cards

This hectic story begins at the Trader Joe’s in Ann Arbor where Julie Kobylarz was shopping with her family when someone stole her wallet out of her purse.

It ends at the Briarwood Mall after Kobylarz and her family learned the suspect was there.

“My heart sank when I noticed my wallet was gone and within maybe 10 minutes, I started getting these huge charges coming through at the Apple Store,” said Kobylarz.

Kobylarz says the person who stole her credit cards this past Sunday made a $2,000 purchase at the Apple Store inside Briarwood.

Kobylarz, her fiancé, Bryan Heckencamp, and their three children made their way to the mall after learning about the purchase.

“While we were making our report with the manager at the Apple Store, I had a Cash App notification come through and it said someone was trying to make a purchase at Vans, and Vans was right across the hall from the Apple Store,” Kobylarz added.

Kobylarz says she went into the Vans store and confronted the man who she believed had her cards.
