Windsor Police seek suspects after stolen vehicle used in attempted break-in

  
   

The Windsor Police are seeking two suspects after a stolen vehicle was used in an attempted commercial break-and-enter in east Windsor.

On March 20, 2024, just before 3:30 a.m., officers responded to a security alarm at a business in the 1100 block of Lauzon Rd. Officers learned that two suspects had attached chains to a black Dodge Ram and the business’s entrance in an attempt to pull the door off and gain entry. When the attempt failed, the suspects fled the scene east on Little River Blvd. from Lauzon Rd. 

Roughly 90 minutes later, officers were called to a vehicle fire in the 2600 block of Sycamore Dr. Upon further investigation, officers learned that this was the same truck used in the attempted break and enter. The vehicle sustained substantial fire damage.

The first suspect is described as a male wearing a balaclava, dark grey jacket, grey pants, and black shoes.
