On Monday, January 16, 2012 at approximately 4:15 a.m. an unknown man was captured on surveillance video breaking into the Gathering Place Church located at 10310 Dixie Highway near Florence, Kentucky.
The suspect is described as a white male wearing a black parka, black sock hat, blue jeans, tan boots, dark blue rubber gloves, and carrying a black backpack. Cameras caught him surveying the building before he removed a pry bar from his backpack and forced a rear window open at 4:18 a.m. Once inside he went straight for the office where he stole petty cash. He left the building through the same window at 4:27 a.m.
Investigators are asking anyone with information as to the identity of the burglar to please call either the Boone County Sheriff’s Office at (859) 334–2175 or Crime Stoppers at (513) 352–3040.
