Police are searching for a suspect who allegedly broke into Freitas Package Store late last night after heavy snowfall began to taper off across the city.
According to authorities, the individual — notably dressed in shorts despite freezing temperatures — forced entry into the business under the cover of night. Surveillance cameras captured the break-in, and investigators are reviewing the footage in hopes of identifying the suspect.
Officials have not yet disclosed what, if anything, was stolen, but say the store sustained damage during the incident. The unusual clothing worn by the suspect has become a key detail that may help witnesses recall seeing him in the area before or after the crime.
Police are asking anyone who recognizes the individual or observed suspicious activity nearby to contact the department. Anonymous tips may also be submitted as the investigation continues.
