Suspect Descriptions
Both suspects appear to be slender young males.
One is a tall white or Hispanic male with close cropped hair wearing an athletic sweatsuit and dark sneakers.
The second suspect, across the street, also appears to be a slender white or Hispanic male in dark clothing.
The first suspect described is clearly seen on the footage exiting an unlocked vehicle after rummaging through its contents.
Don't be a Victim
Keep vehicles locked at all times
Do not leave packages or valuables visible
Use security cameras and exterior security lighting
"These types of crimes do increase during the holidays because people are shopping and leaving items in vehicles," says Jeff McShan of Harris County Precinct 5. "Burglary of a motor vehicle is the number one crime in Harris County, but it can be prevented. We have witnessed thieves in parking lots checking doors to see if they are unlocked. Use common sense to prevent being a victim."
Contact Investigator with Information
Anyone who recognizes these suspects or has information linked to these crimes is urged to contact Investigator R. Benford or reach out through Precinct 5's online crime tips webpage.
