A wealthy suburban sanctuary on the outskirts of Boston, Massachusetts, is on the lookout for a masked prowler who was captured on camera outside a home.
The Weston Police Department said that surveillance cameras at a private property caught a masked individual wearing a bicycle helmet walking around the property around 2:30 to 3:30 a.m. Sunday, Aug. 2, and now police are asking for the public’s help in their investigation of the “suspicious incident.”
Police said there is no indication the suspect entered the home, but the individual was completely masked and on private property during overnight hours.
“Based on the circumstances, we believe the person’s intentions were likely not lawful,” police said.
