Lingerie valued at $1,800 was stolen early Wednesday from Sexy Suz Couples Boutique on Atlanta Highway, according to an Athens-Clarke County police report.
The manager reportedly told police that when she showed up for work that morning she found that a side window had been busted out and several racks of lingerie were missing.
When the manager checked security camera video, she saw images of a black male use an unknown object to break the window at 1:45 a.m., and after entering the store he "grabs the clothing by the armful and then exits the store through the same window,“ according to the police report.
The manager reportedly told police that it appeared at the time that 60 pairs of lingerie were stolen, with each having a value of about $30.
Police on Friday afternoon released images of the burglar from surveillance video.
Police asked that anyone with information on the subject’s identity contact Det. Brian O’Neill at 762-400-7375 or the Crime Stoppers confidential tip line at 706-705-4775.
