Police say that a woman’s home was ransacked by a burglar who also stole her credit cards.
Several months ago, detectives say that a man broke into a home on St. Phillips Drive through an unsecured window while the homeowner was at work.
Detective Mark Thomas with the Lexington Police Department said that the man took a laptop, money, jewelry, and a credit card that was used at the Shell Station on Richmond Road near the home.
The man was caught on surveillance video at the gas station.

“More than anything, this is just such a violation of someone’s privacy, this is their home,” said Detective Thomas. “This is somebody that works hard in our community. She was at her job, and she’s a good, upstanding person in the community.”
Detectives say that the man behind this break-in could be behind other break-ins and burglaries in the area around the same time.
