Dallas, TX – Dallas Burglary detectives are asking for the public's help to catch a suspect believed responsible for up to seven South Dallas "Auto Zone" burglaries.

The first one was in April. Police say the suspect always breaks the front glass, enters and exits within a minute, carrying what he can on foot - no car.

He is captured on surveillance video in at least two of the Auto Zone stores.

Police say he is a Latin male, 28 to 35 years old, about 5-7 and 150 pounds. Detectives don't say why he chooses Auto Zones, or what he takes.

Anyone with information about the suspect or these offenses is asked to contact the Southeast Investigative Section at (214) 670-0112.
