People dressed in scrubs stole the credit cards of hospital employees

Arkansas police are looking for multiple suspects after people dressed in scrubs stole the credit cards of Washington Regional Medical Center employees, according to an article on the Campus Safety website.

The four thieves entered the Fayetteville facility impersonating employees and walked into an unauthorized area where workers keep their personal belongings and took only credit cards.

Video surveillance footage captured images of the suspects in the building and also as they drove away.

Police are advising hospitals in the area to keep their employee-only areas locked and secured.
