A Queen Creek man suspected of stealing credit cards from gym lockers across the Valley and using them for retail purchases was charged with eight felony counts Wednesday, according to the county attorney’s office.
Owen Hardy, 49, was followed by a Mesa task force for several months while he committed thefts from lockers at several different gyms and used stolen credit cards to make purchases, according to a Mesa Police probable cause statement.
Hardy will face charges for four counts of burglary, three counts of credit card forgery and one count of trafficking stolen property, all felonies.
Hardy traveled between Pima and Maricopa counties, as well as Southern California, to commit the burglaries, according to the release. He faces a $90,000 bond and could receive more charges.
