Dominos theft suspect


Around 2:22 p.m. on January 1, 2025 (the time stamp on the video is wrong), the unknown Hispanic male seen here went into the Domino's Pizza located at 5315 North US Hwy 98, walked behind the counter, and stole $400.00 cash. The employee inside the establishment was making a pizza at the time. When she heard a noise, she saw the suspect leaving with the money. 

The suspect was wearing a black shirt with the movie Scarface on it, blue jeans, and black sneakers. He was also wearing a New York Yankees ball cap and a backpack. He appears to be in his 30s and has tattoos on his arms. He arrived and left on a bicycle, seen by several witnesses.
