Police in Hardin County are searching for two thieves they believe are committing crimes around the state.

Their latest victims are patients at a hospital in Elizabethtown

The man and woman were caught on surveillance tape at Hardin Memorial and a nearby bank.

Police say they're responsible for thefts at the hospital and at a surgical center on March 8.

The man is seen walking the hospital hallways checking for unlocked doors.

"The gentleman, he walks through checking doors and once he can make entry into a particular room, (on cam) They're grabbing women's purses. Then as soon as they get that purse, they head to the bank where they are cashing checks, so in other words, they get the ID and go through the pull-through window," said Officer Virgil Willoughby of the Elizabethtown Police.

The two have also made away with cash and a laptop computer.
