Shortly before 4:00 a.m. on Wednesday, April 24, police say a lone male was caught on security camera entering an apartment building by prying open a side door.
“Once inside the building, the male attempted to use a grinder saw to access the tenant mailboxes, the superintendent office and an underground garage,” police say. “The suspect was unable to access those locations or the mailbox.”
The suspect then allegedly pried open a vending machine in the building’s lobby and stole beverages.
