A car burglary occurred on Acorn Drive in Mulberry in the early morning hours of March 10th, and now the Polk County Sheriff's Office is investigating.
Due to an electrical issue with the victim's car, the vehicle does not always lock. This made for easy pickings for our suspect.
Security video captured a lone individual riding a bicycle down the street at 3:30 AM.
PCSO detectives want to know if anyone recognizes this individual, or if they have any information regarding this investigation. If so, please contact Detective Mease at 863-956-6765 (Case #22-10535)
