Detectives try to ID 'old school' burglar

Man caught on security camera burglarizing Pompano Beach home

POMPANO BEACH, Fla. – Broward Sheriff's Office detectives are trying to identify a man who burglarized a Pompano Beach home but was oblivious to the security camera that gave deputies a good look at his face.

The burglary occurred on the afternoon of Nov. 20 at a home near Norwood Pines Park.

Deputies released the video Friday in the hopes that the public will recognize the man.

The surveillance video shows a silver sport utility vehicle pull up in the driveway. A man wearing a shirt that reads "I am old school" in red lettering exits the SUV and walks to the front door, pretending to be a visitor.

After nobody answers his knock on the door, the man can be seen wiping away his fingerprints, putting on gloves and pulling something out of his pocket. A few minutes later, the man pries open the door and walks inside.

Detectives said he got away with a box containing the victim's jewelry.

On his way out, the man turns around once more to make sure the door is closed.

Anyone who recognizes the man is asked to call the BSO or Broward County Crime Stoppers at 954-493-TIPS.
