Las Vegas police are looking for a man and woman who allegedly stole a car on Oct. 24 in the area of Smoke Ranch Road and Torrey Pines Drive. The owner of the vehicle had stopped for a quick visit to a home in the area when the theft occurred. The vehicle's owner left the vehicle running while the owner went inside the home. There was a passenger inside the vehicle at the time. While the driver was in the house, a gold car pulled up behind the running vehicle. A man got into the driver's seat and told the passenger to get out. He drove away with the gold car following. A neighbor followed the stolen car to a nearby apartment complex. The man and a woman got into the gold vehicle and left. A short time later, the victim's credit card was used in two different locations.
