On the evening of June 4, 2013, a suspect trespassed into the plumbing/metal shop offices on the east side of Folsom Field and stole 2 Samsung Galaxy 4G phones. He also rummaged around in a refrigerator and stole a bottle of water and some food.
Dumb shit
On the afternoon of July 21, 2013, a man resembling the prior theft suspect entered the same area and stole 3 additional Samsung Galaxy 4G phones and $2 of cash from a desk. He again opened the same refrigerator and stole food.
