Rockland Police asking for help identifying suspect behind rash of business break-ins

ROCKLAND, Mass. — Rockland Police are asking for help identifying a suspect they believe is behind a string of business break-ins this past weekend.

The break-ins happened overnight Saturday into Sunday at the Dunkin’ on Hingham Street, the Brown Bag Deli on Weymouth Street and the Sullivan Tire on VFW Drive. All three businesses are located within two miles of one another.

Surveillance video from the Dunkin’ shows a heavy set man pull up in a car just before 2 a.m. Sunday. He gets out with a large rock and throws the rock at the glass door three times. He then kicks the door in with his foot, before grabbing the rock, getting back into his car and driving off.

Police say the car the man is driving appears to be a gray sedan, possibly a Nissan or Toyota, with damage to the passenger side headlight.

Anyone with information is urged to contact police at 781-871-3890 or visit the Comments/Tips section of rocklandpolice.com.
