CHARLOTTE HARBOR — Detectives are asking for the public’s help in identifying a man suspected of breaking a car window and stealing a purse out of a parked car at a CVS here, according to the Charlotte County Sheriff’s Office.

The alleged burglary occurred sometime between 1:45 p.m. and 6 p.m. Dec. 20, at the CVS, 4478 Tamiami Trail, after an employee parked her Ford Edge in the parking lot and put her purse on the floorboard, covering it with a sweatshirt, the report states.

Detectives obtained what they believe is an image of the suspect using surveillance video from inside the store.

The suspect is described as a black male, around 30 years old and about 6 feet tall and 170 pounds, with short hair, a mustache and a goatee. At the time, he was wearing a black ball cap, a white T-shirt and jean shorts.

Anyone with information about the identity of the subject is asked to call CCSO Detective Kristopher McRae at 941-639-2101, or Crime Stoppers at 800-780-TIPS (8477).
