DAYTIME BURGLARIES, SUSPECTS KNOCK ON FRONT DOOR 

The burglaries have occurred mostly during the day time hours.  The suspects appear to be “casing” local neighborhoods to identify locations where residents are not at home.

James Lindsey, 35, is in custody for murder and under a $500,000 bond after a late night fight with Christopher Earl ended in homicide, according to Palm Bay Police spokesperson Yvonne Martinez.
According to the Palm Bay Police, these suspects have burglarized more than a dozen homes stealing high value items such as electronics, IPads, jewelry and credit cards. Residents are encouraged to immediately report suspicious persons and vehicles in their neighborhoods.

“The suspects would knock on the front door, if no one answered they would go to the rear of the home and force their way inside,” said Palm Bay Police Sgt. Ron Lugo.  “We are hoping someone recognizes the individuals in the surveillance video and can help us identify them.”
