DESTIN, Fla. – Several vehicle burglaries occurred Saturday in Destin, and the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office is asking the public to help identify a suspect captured on video surveillance.

According to the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office (OCSO), deputies responded to several vehicle burglaries in the Emerald Heights neighborhood.

Deputies are trying to identify the individual that was seen allegedly burglarizing a vehicle and pulling on door handles in that area. The suspect appears to be a white male, around 5’8” to 5’11” tall, wearing long camouflage-patterned shorts and tan work boots, the OCSO said.

The suspect appears to have tattoos on his right arm.
