Deputies want to question a man and a woman, who they say, used a stolen bank card at two stores.

The Polk County Sheriff's Office released surveillance pictures of the man and the woman, Friday evening. They said they were seen in a gold 95-97 Ford Explorer.

Authorities said the stolen card was used at a gas station in Bartow and at a Lowe's.

Deputies said the card was stolen during an armed home invasion that occurred Feb. 4th around 3 a.m. along Emily Boulevard.

Deputies are not saying the two people they want to question are responsible for the armed home invasion only that the card they were using was taken during the robbery.

If anyone has any information, they should call Heartland Crime Stoppers.

"I always feel like you should lead an honest life," Kristi Snelgrove said.

Snelgrove lives across the street from the home that was robbed. She said she was scared, finding out about the armed home invasion this evening.

"I'll have to go and look at the surveillance pictures myself more closely to see if I've ever seen them in the neighborhood," Snelgrove said.
