Police are searching for a man who was captured on a security camera burglarizing a home while it was being fumigated in Ventura on Wednesday.
The unidentified male suspect cut the fumigation tent, removed a window screen, and opened an unlocked window to enter the home shortly after 5:30 a.m., the Ventura Police Department stated in an Instagram post.
“Once inside, the suspect stole multiple items, including various types of jewelry and a laptop,” the post read.
The police department posted a surveillance image in hopes of identifying the suspect.
He was described as a possibly Hispanic male between 30 and 35 years old with a mustache and partial beard.
Anyone with information about the case was asked to contact Detective Nick Davy at 805-339-4481 or ndavy@venturapd.org.
