GILROY, Calif. (KRON) -- Authorities are looking for a suspect who stole an iPad and other electronics from the Gilroy Library on Sunday around 3:40 p.m., the Gilroy Police Department announced in a Facebook post on Wednesday. Three days later, the stolen iPad -- using the OfferUp app -- was sold during an exchange Wednesday around 10 a.m. at the Starbucks in Morgan Hill's Vineyard Shopping Center.
Police said the iPad contains valuable information to the owner, who is offering a reward for the return of the device. The iPad has been placed in "Lost" status and is unusable.
A man who purchased the iPad did not know the device was stolen, according to police. He identified as a white man with facial hair driving a red pickup truck.
