"criminal possession of a financial device"
'Had to look up what is considered a financial device...
Under 18-5-702 CRS, it is a criminal offense in Colorado to use, possess, or manufacture a blank credit card. Unlawful use of a financial transaction device encompasses credit cards, debit cards, ATM cards, or other financial devices. This crime can be a petty offense, misdemeanor, or a felony.''

Yeah... It sounds like he and his minor friends stole 4+ wallets from various (probably unlocked) cars that each contained someone's ID & credit cards and at least some of the wallets also had cash.
