Authorities are trying to identify the two men who allegedly used a stolen credit card at an Opelika Wal-Mart, Opelika Police announced Wednesday afternoon in a news release.

Capt. Bobby Kilgore said the department received a call on Dec. 28 from a resident reporting that someone used her card to purchase electronics at the business.

Officials described the suspects as two white men. One was seen in black pants, a gray long-sleeve shirt and a black toboggan, while the other was dressed in blue jeans, a black shirt and a black hat.

The suspects left in a dark Chevrolet stepside truck, which authorities said was also captured on camera.
