Cahokia police looking for convenience store burglar

Cahokia police are looking for a man who smashed his way into a convenience store and then burglarized it.

The suspect broke through a glass door at about 3 a.m. on April 27. Police did not reveal which store was the man’s target. But they said this isn’t the first time he’s burglarized the business.

The suspect is a black male with a thin build and a small beard on his chin. He was wearing a navy sweatshirt with “Cal” in gold script across the front. He carried a white bag, possibly a pillow case or a small trash bag, in which he placed the stolen items.
