BAL HARBOUR (CBSMiami) - Bal Harbour Police have finally put a name to the face in the case of the Rolex-stealing, Gucci loafer-wearing bandit.
But now they believe she's skipped town and is out of their reach.
Police knew what she looked like. Clear surveillance video showed the thief clomping her way into an elevator in September of 2014, wearing her victim's size 11 Gucci loafers- carrying her high heels, purse, a stolen Rolex, $2,000 of stolen cash, a cell phone, and a drink in her hand.
Police now say they know her name.
"Our detective was able to find a photograph of a possible suspect," Bal Harbour Police Detetive Miguel De La Rosa told CBS4's Natalia Zea.
The Bal Harbour victim picked 24-year-old Alexandria Layce Martinez-Davis out of a photo lineup. He said she was the woman he met at a bar in the Fontainbleau Hotel, the woman who he brought home, and the woman who waited until he fell asleep, and walked out of his condo with nearly $20,000 dollars worth of his stuff.
"He's remorseful, he's embarrassed this has happened to him and he's thrust into all this by simply meeting someone at a bar," said De La Rosa.
Police say just three months after preying on the man in Bal Harbour, they say the same woman went after an unsuspecting man in Miami Beach, and she met him again at the Fontainbleau Hotel.
She was arrested for grand theft in that case in November.

Police say she stole two Rolexes from that Miami Beach man while he slept.
Detectives say once they figured out this may be their suspect too, she may already have skipped town.
"We haven't seen her or heard of her, she has some previous addresses in California so she may be out in California. Her attorney says simply he's trying to locate her and try to surrender to us."
Police believe the brazen blonde has had her way with other victims who are too embarrassed to call police.
"She's very smooth very confident. This is somewhat of a confidence crime because people will get at ease with her, and she's able to take their valuables," said De La Rosa.
If you know where Martinez-Davis is, call Bal Harbour police or Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-TIPS.
