The suspect was described as approximately 5 feet 10 inches tall, wearing a black Pittsburgh Steelers jersey with the number 10 and carrying a white trash bag.
No weapons, threats or injuries have been reported at this time.
This is the fifth community alert of September and the second burglary of the month. There was another burglary in late August, where an unknown suspect stole three bottles of wine from Pavillion III.
