ALAMEDA, CA — Alameda Police have released surveillance photos of a man they say is responsible for store thefts in several cities, over several months. Can you identify him?

The Target store in Alameda contacted police last Friday. "The pictured subject entered Target and selected several high-valued items before fleeing northeast on foot along Mitchell Avenue," police said in a release to the community. "While working collaboratively with Target’s loss prevention team, Alameda Police Officers were made aware that an individual matching the same description is believed to be connected to multiple unreported thefts, in and outside of Alameda, over the last few months. In the incidents prior, the pictured individual targeted the same type of high-valued items, exited the establishment in the same unique manner, and fled on foot along the same route."

Police released photos of the man from November, December and January.
