Overview:

Police say the suspect was breaking into cars on April 5 on Brookgate Drive, and that he may have been with four other people in a silver car. What appears to be a silver hatchback or SUV, with the right rear passenger door open, is visible behind the man in the image.

Clayton County Police are warning Ellenwood residents to beware of an armed man caught checking out cars in people’s driveways.

A home security camera captured images of the man, who can be seen carrying what appears to be a black pistol in his right hand. He was wearing a dark hoodie, possibly with a white shirt underneath, light-colored pants, and two-tone hightops or ankle-high boots. The photo also shows a rectangle about the size of a work ID in the middle of the man’s chest. He wore a mask and head covering, so only his eyes are visible.
