A string of thefts at a north Spokane mobile home park is prompting Crime Stoppers to offer a cash reward for information leading to the arrest of the suspect.

Detectives are seeking a male suspect who was wearing a light-colored, large jacket. He also was wearing a ski mask or bandana over his face.

On the night of March 15 and into the early morning hours of the next day, multiple cars were entered by the person, who was caught on camera at the mobile home park at 2201 N. Craig Road.

“The suspect walked from driveway to driveway checking doors of vehicles for approximately 30 minutes before leaving the area,” according to a Spokane County Sheriff’s Office news release.

Detectives say he was driving a Subaru Forester.

The group, Crime Stoppers of the Inland Northwest, is asking anyone with information to call (800) 222-TIPS or visit www.p3tips.com. Tips can be anonymous. The amount for the tips was not available.
