Suspect Sought In Theft Of 57 Laptops; Recognize Him?

PLEASANTON, CA – The Pleasanton Police Department is turning to the public hoping for help with the identification of a man suspected in the theft of 57 laptops valued at $155,000 from a Pleasanton business.

The suspect reportedly entered the commercial establishment on eight different days between April and June -- during "after-work" hours at about 6 p.m. and sometimes multiple times in one day -- then made off with the gear, said Shannon Revel-Whitaker, crime prevention specialist with the Pleasanton PD.

On two additional occasions, it appeared the suspect was scared away, possibly by staff or security in the area, she said.

The department did not disclose the targeted company's name, address or type of business.

The man is possibly associated with a newer-model Audi A5 coupe with paper plates, Revel-Whitaker said. The vehicle's color was not available.

If you can identify this person or have any information, contact Detective Chin at (925) 931-5274.
