Dartmouth Police Seeking Attempted Break-in Suspect

DARTMOUTH — Dartmouth police are looking for help from the public in identifying a masked man who tried to break into a house near Crapo Field at around 3 a.m. Sunday.

The department released surveillance video of the suspect in a Facebook post later that day.

Although the post did not specify exactly where the attempted break-in took place, Crapo Field is located on Russells Mills Road in South Dartmouth, near Friendly Pizza.

In the video, the man is seen wearing a black hoodie, an orange face mask, and yellow shoes.

He can be seen trying to open the front door of the house before fleeing.

In typical tongue-in-cheek fashion, the department compared the suspect to a character in the film Nacho Libre, before urging anyone with information to call Detective Kyle Costa at 508-910-1755 or send an anonymous tip to police.
