A number of credit cards were stolen at 1:30 p.m. Saturday at the Benner Pike Wal-Mart, in College Township, State College police said.
The cards were used later to make purchases at local Best Buy and Target stores, as $3,050 in fraudulent charges were tallied under the victim’s name, according to a news release.
