FT LAUDERDALE (CBSMiami) - A group of opportunistic burglars was caught on camera cashing in on some of their stolen goods.
On the morning of April 15th, they broke into a home at 1405 SW 1st Avenue in Deerfield Beach and took nearly everything of value that was easy to carry including a Winchester 1500 XTR shotgun, a pellet gun, two iPads, wedding bands and numerous coins.
The Broward Sheriff's Office said they then drove about a mile away where they used a Coinstar machine inside a Winn-Dixie to convert the coins to cash.
Their haul? $377.77.
In surveillance video from the store, the four unidentified males can be seen huddled around the kiosk. Broward sheriff's investigators said they all appear to be 18 – 20 years old. Detectives believe the suspects were driving a copper-colored four-door hatchback.
Anyone with information can give a tip anonymously to Broward Crime Stoppers at (954) 493-TIPS (8477) or online at browardcrimestoppers.org. Crime Stoppers will pay up to $3,000 for the anonymous tip that leads to an arrest.
