Police hot on the trail of frozen custard thief

COLCHESTER - Police are looking for the burglar who broke into a local frozen custard restaurant early Sunday.

A single male suspect forced entry into Scotties Frozen Custard at 327 New London Road sometime between the hours of midnight and 3 a.m. Sunday, police said.

Video (click here) from the restaurant shows a man wearing a light-colored hooded sweatshirt and possibly a bandana over his face forcing open a door to get inside. He pulled up minutes before in what appears to be a light-colored, soft-top Jeep that is a model from the mid-2000s, police said.

It is unclear what was taken during the burglary. The time stamp on the video is not accurate police said, but the video was from the burglary that occurred early Sunday.

The store posted a comment about the break-in on their Facebook page, saying that it appeared the burglar wasn't the man's "first rodeo."

The restaurant's response to concerned customers who saw the post was that the frozen custard was not damaged in the break-in.

Anyone who recognizes the man or has any information is asked to call Colchester police at (860) 537-7270.
