A slithering suspect hunted by investigators in Douglas County, Georgia,
may be responsible for a half dozen burglaries at businesses.
They said they know it's the same suspect because he is breaking into
the businesses in a unique way.
At one convenience store surveillance cameras show the suspect removing a
full glass window from a door to get inside. Douglas County Sheriff
Investigator Dale Kelley said the suspect is removing the trim from
around the glass to remove the windows.
"I believe he's done some type of work with windows to be able to do it so neatly," Kelley said. Once inside, the suspect slithers along the floor like a snake to get to the cash register booth. Kelley said he's trying to avoid being detected by motion sensors which would set off an alarm.
"He's covering his face up to the bridge of his nose, only exposing his
eyes and he's always wearing gloves," he said.
Kelley said he's equipped with tools to open a panel and crawl into the
secure cash register booth. Investigators have tied the suspect to six
burglaries in ten days. Four happened in Douglas County, one each in
Douglasville and Marietta.
Inv. Kelley said he always gets in the same way, by removing a full
window.
"I believe he's done some type of work with windows to be able to do it so neatly," Kelley said. Once inside, the suspect slithers along the floor like a snake to get to the cash register booth. Kelley said he's trying to avoid being detected by motion sensors which would set off an alarm.
