South Florida man steals 3 TVs, makes daring bicycle getaway

RESIDENTIAL BURGLAR PASSES FOR NEIGHBORHOOD CYCLIST A resident of a beachside neighborhood in Deerfield Beach was burglarized by an unassuming man seen riding a bike early in the morning. To add insult to injury, the burglar used the victim’s own wagon and beanbag chair cover to haul away their most valuable items. The unidentified burglar arrived at the victim’s home just after midnight on March 22. Security video captured him lurking around the property and peeking into windows. After sunrise, cameras once again recorded the unidentified man riding his bike up to the property. He made his way into the home through a sliding glass door and re-emerged just before 7:30 a.m. with a wagon’s worth of expensive items. The thief got away with a blue folding utility wagon, three Samsung flat-screen televisions, a Krups coffeemaker, three Amazon Fire TV Sticks, an Arlo Smart Home Security Camera System valued at over $500 and $800 worth of luxury bedding. The thief is described as a white male, possibly in his early 40s, with a thin build and short dark hair. He wore a red backpack, a dark-colored baseball cap, a tan shirt, tan pants and white athletic shoes. He rode a dark-colored bike.
