Watch this crook he's fast......

[Greg McCary]

At one of our schools the drink machines have been broken into four times. I put a camera up just before I went out for back surgery. We got hit again. Watch how fast this guy brakes into this machine. Wow. If any one would help me enhance the video or clip an image and PS it I would appreciate it.

Geez. It took him seven seconds to jimmy the lock open. From the time he started on the lock to the time he walked away, was about 30 seconds. This guy knows what he's doing. Pepsi or Coke delivery guy?

I can't help you with the image processing, but I hope you get the guy.

Bad luck on that one. I agree with Speed, maybe a delivery guy or ticked off tax payer. See if one of the school video guys can zoom in on your original tape or file, I can't do anything with it off the internet.

The tattoo is what will get this guy caught and the fact that he thinks he's not ever noticed...patience will catch this crook.
A local shop owner had this same problem like this several years ago. He employed a motion detector, 140 decible alarm.Never again!

The tattoo might help positively ID the guy, but hopefully you have a higher resolution version right out of the camera. I see he has a tattoo but can't tell what it is...

I didn't notice the tattoo. I have ordered a higher res camera. Hopefully I can swap it out. The problem is getting the camera low enough and close enough without some student sneaking up behind it and taking it out.

All of that for a handfull of change. I bet he didn't get $20.00

That type of tattoo is very distinct( a solid band) and quite unusual.
The fact is that he shows it off(the cut off shirt) will be his demise.I agree having higher res. will help.If it's a small town...it will come around.
I predict that the tattoo will be the determining factor to I.D. this guy

That's crazy! He is fast. I'm assuming you have turned this in to the authorities? I'm sure they probably have something to enhance the original video to help id the guy. Good luck Greg!

I kind of looks like an arm band to me. I wonder is it a gang thing now? You guys have good eyes I never even noticed. I will make a couple of calls in the morning.....
