The suspect was wearing coveralls he found inside the business to attempt to blend in with other employees who were working at the time, Savano said. Three Dell laptop computers valued at more than $2,000 were taken, Savano said.
There was no forced entry in either burglary and the method of entry is unknown, Savano said. Police are hoping the public can help identify the suspect and call Sgt. Ed Crosby at (707) 778-4415.
