AUSTIN (KXAN) - Additional victims have come forward and been identified in a case where a suspected group of females stole victims' credit or debit cards and charged high-dollar unauthorized amounts to them.
In December 2008, the Austin Police Department received three reports of males targeted in the Sixth Street area by a group of females suspected of stealing their credit or debit cards for illegal purposes. Officials said they believe the victims in these cases may have been drugged in order for the suspects to control them.
The male victims reportedly disappeared from Sixth Street after being only momentarily separated
from their friends, waking up in the morning with little, to no, memory of the previous night except being taken from the Sixth Street area in a van or utility vehicle with three or four females. The men also would find their wallets in disarray and unauthorized transactions made to their credit and/or debit cards.
sisters are doin' if for themselves.
just keep an eye out for this guy, ladies.

Texas death row inmate pulls out eye, eats it
A Texas death row inmate with a history of mental problems pulled out his only good eye and told authorities he ate it.
Andre Thomas, 25, was arrested for the fatal stabbings of his estranged wife, their young son and her 13-month-old daughter in March 2004. Their hearts also had been ripped out. He was convicted and condemned for the infant's death.
While in the Grayson County Jail in Sherman, Thomas plucked out his right eye before his trial later in 2004. A judge subsequently ruled he was competent to stand trial.
A death-row officer at the Polunsky Unit of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice found Thomas in his cell with blood on his face and took him to the infirmary.
""Thomas said he pulled out his eye and subsequently ingested it," agency spokesman Jason Clark said Friday.
Thomas was treated at East Texas Medical Center in Tyler after the Dec. 9 incident. Then he was transferred and remains at the Jester Unit, a prison psychiatric facility near Richmond southwest of Houston.
"He will finally be able to receive the mental health care that we had wanted and begged for from day 1," Bobbie Peterson-Cate, Thomas' trial attorney, told the Sherman Herald Democrat. "He is insane and mentally ill. It is exactly the same reason he pulled out the last one."
