Man Caught On Surveillance Video Fishing For Trouble In Weston

MIAMI (CBSMiami) - The Broward Sheriff's Office is looking for a man wanted in connection with attempted home break-ins in the Weston area.

BSO says the man was captured on video "seemingly enjoying some midday fishing," when he was actually casing the neighborhood and looking to break into homes.

Surveillance video captured the man behind homes at around 12:30 p.m. on April 11.

Police said a homeowner in the Coconuts neighborhood noticed a man walking around the lake behind his home.

The man said he noticed the suspect peeking into his screened-in patio, but didn't think much of it.

Later, the homeowner reviewed video, only to find out the suspect attempted to get inside his home.
