ROSEVILLE (CBS13) – A search is on for a person of interest in an identity theft case in Roseville.

While on the phone talking to the fraud division, the resident then got a curious visitor at his door. A man in a white car had pulled up and knocked on the door. Not knowing the man, the resident didn't answer and instead called up the sheriff's department.

The man soon left in a newer, white Mercedes sedan with paper plates and custom wheels.

Anyone who recognizes the man is asked to contact detectives at (916) 652-2423.
