Caught on camera: Cigarette-smoking suspect steals more than 20 packages in Boston, police say

The Boston Police Department is urging the public to help them identify a suspect who they said forced his way into a building in Mattapan and stole 20 to 25 packages. He also damaged several other packages, police said.

Surveillance footage shows the suspect entering the lobby carrying a gym bag over his shoulder and smoking a cigarette. He then grabs multiple packages — all while puffing on the cigarette in a “smoke free community.”
