The Sanford police department is turning to the community for assistance in identifying a suspicious individual captured on home security footage. The person in question was seen trying to peer into a residence's windows in an incident that took place on December 23. According to ClickOrlando, the event occurred near the intersection of Laurel Avenue and 12th Street and involved the suspect wrapping themselves in a green blanket sporting a duck logo to mask their identity.
It was around 12:30 a.m. when security cameras recorded the individual's actions, which included not just looking into the front windows but also unlawfully entering the fenced-in backyard. Despite the cover of night and the green blanket, this person has been linked to multiple incidents over the last month: "Security footage shows the person looking into the home’s front windows and unlawfully entering the fenced-in backyard," according to ClickOrlando. The recurring nature of these events adds to the concern of the residents and authorities alike.
Further details about the suspect were shared by WESH. The police are treating the situation as a potential 'Peeping Tom' case. The individual recorded is described as a man using the green blanket with the duck insignia for concealment.
Residents who have noticed someone matching this unusual description or have had similar experiences are being tapped for information. Although the person's face was hidden under a blanket, anyone with further information or additional surveillance footage is encouraged to reach out to the Sanford Police Department.
