"Name That Thief" Is Back
This time it is a video round, with a couple of still images to help. You have been remarkable in helping us identify our thieves this year. Let's see if we can identify this one!!
On November 10th, we took a report from a
homeowner who had his video camera stolen in the middle of the night. The good news is that the camera captured and
stored the thief’s image and he moved in for the take.
The suspect appears on the right hand edge of the screen smoking
a cigarette in the middle of the night. He
then moves in to snag the camera. The
video shows him struggling to remove the camera and eventually he is able to
dislodge it from the mounting plate. Our
victim wakes up the following morning to find his camera has been taken……but
alas, there is video.
Here are a few still images we are able to capture from
the video.
Help us identify this thief and make his next image a
mugshot!!
