Apparently the theft of surveilance video cameras has increased dramatically in Fresno, California. That's the bad news. The good news? At least one of the thieves apparently wasn't smart enough to cut the cable to the camera at the Surf Thru Carwash before it recorded a very clear picture OF HIS FACE.
Now cops have at least a little evidence to go on as they look for this dumbass. You can take a look at the video below and see if you can identify him. There's probably a reward. At the very least you can laugh when they arrest him.
Here's more on the story from ABC 30:
Owner Todd Gall was surprised by what the camera captured. He said, "I was shocked here we have cameras missing when we show up at work one day obviously everything's being recorded so we went back and played it back and saw his face, obviously it caught everything in action." Fresno Police Sgt. Eric Hodge says police couldn't ask for much better evidence and a possible lead to a string of similar crimes. "That subject provided great video of himself as he stole those cameras. But we also have an increase in thefts of video cameras from throughout the north end of the city," Fresno Police Sgt. Eric Hodge said. "Several businesses have been hit where they climb up behind the camera, dislodge them and take them out." Security cameras have been ripped down from at least a dozen businesses. Police aren't' sure if the thefts are related.
