A Glenpool woman had her purse stolen, then, the thief showed up at her house.

She said the burglar is brazen, and she doesn't think the person is operating alone.

The woman and her friend were out Saturday night here near 81st and Memorial, and left their purses behind.

When they went back to the truck, the purses were gone.

Whoever took Summer Miller and Tiffany Scherado's purses got away with I.D.'s, keys, and credit cards and went on a shopping spree.

“Carter's, Macy's, Taco Bueno, Taco Bell, Home Depot,” Scherado said.

The thief didn't stop there. 48 hours later, Miller said the thief showed up at her house.

"My car was unlocked, so they had already unlocked it and was in the process of taking the car and probably getting into the house, too,” Miller said.

She said she spotted a blacked out car she's never seen before speeding away from her neighborhood right as she pulled up to her home with a locksmith.

She's seen the car drive by again, twice.

"They're pretty aggressive,” Miller said. “They drove around while the locksmith was there fixing my car and they had stopped a few blocks down the road."

The women believe more than one person stole their purses because purchases at stores like QuikTrip, Carter's and Old Navy happened on different credit cards, almost simultaneously.

Their credit cards are now cancelled.

"I got a little cash to hold me over until I can get new debit cards and checks and everything," said Scherado.

Police are now keeping an eye on Miller's home, because she fears the burglars are watching her and her kids, waiting for another unlocked door, a chance to get in and take more.

"I do think they will [come back] just because they have already went this far," said Miller.

The women are also frustrated that retailers did not check for an I.D. to match their credit cards.

Tulsa police and Glenpool police are investigating.
