The Opelika Police Department is asking for the public’s help identifying a suspect who police said stole a vehicle from Fairway Auto Brokers.
Police said the vehicle was “last seen with a Fairway Auto Brokers drive-off tag heading eastbound on Second Avenue.”
On Monday at approximately 8:45 p.m., officers responded to a business alarm activation at 301 Second Avenue.
After arriving at the scene, police said the window at the front of the building was broken and employees informed the officers that a green 2018 Ford F-150 XLT was missing from the parking lot.
Police said security camera footage shows “the suspect, a black male with a full beard, arrive wearing a long sleeve red shirt, gray pants, tan work boots, and a brown toboggan. The suspect then puts on a black jacket before committing the crimes,” according to the police report.
The suspect is charged with third degree burglary and first degree theft of property. The case remains under investigation.
