Hungry thief steals from South Florida cars

Man caught on camera breaking into car in Boynton Beach

BOYNTON BEACH, Fla. – Police are looking for a hungry thief who was caught on camera breaking into cars in a South Florida neighborhood.

The man is seen on surveillance video taken in the car and outside the Boynton Beach home where the break-in occurred early Sunday morning.

The man enters the 2012 Toyota Prius, all while enjoying a meal, and continues eating while he searches for valuables in the car.

The owner was notified by an alert from her security cameras that someone had broken into the vehicle.

In the end, the man only took a change purse worth $10, but police believe the man is possibly responsible for other break-ins in the neighborhood.
