WESTBOROUGH – Police are seeking a suspect wanted in connection to at least three break-ins to local businesses.
On Saturday, Oct. 12, at approximately 9:57 p.m., a masked suspect entered the rear of Sun Catcher Tanning Spa, 166 Milk St. in West Meadow Plaza. Security footage shows the suspect removing the cash drawer, moving it to a side room and taking the cash from the drawer.
The suspect then proceeded to Spices Punjabi Dhaba restaurant next door, entering through the rear door, walking to the front counter and removing additional cash.
The suspect continued by entering the men’s bathroom, where they broke through the drywall to access JP’s Pub and Restaurant next door. After crawling through the hole, the suspect located the cash box in the office. JP’s Pub operates on a cash/check-only basis, and the suspect left all checks and change, taking only the cash.
The suspect is described as a male wearing a green hooded sweatshirt, dark-colored sweatpants, sneakers, and a ski mask with cut-out eye and mouth holes. He was also wearing latex-coated work gloves.
