At least two burglars were doing at work in Hunters Crossing in northeast Lakeland during the early morning hours of February 18th.
A vehicle was burgled there...several items were removed from within.
Two suspects were captured on security video, but only one was close enough to the camera for some detail.
We're hoping someone might be able to recognize the suspect getting into the car.
