Bakersfield police are asking the public to help identify a man accused of hurling a rock through the window of a downtown law office, shattering the glass before riding off on a bicycle. Investigators say the vandalism happened at Rodriguez & Associates, located at 1128 Truxtun Ave., and was captured on surveillance video.<\/p>\n
The Bakersfield Police Department is asking for the community\u2019s help in identifying a man who allegedly vandalized the law office, according to KGET 17 News<\/a>. On Sept. 7, the suspect was reportedly seen on video surveillance footage throwing a rock at the window of the law firm, according to the outlet. The impact caused the window to shatter, police said.<\/p>\n What Investigators Know About the Suspect<\/p>\n Police describe the suspect as a man in his 20s with a slim build, black hair and a mustache, per the station’s report. He was wearing a black baseball hat, black T-shirt, black shorts and black shoes, and he had a bicycle with him at the scene, the same account notes. No arrest or identification has been announced in connection with the case.<\/p>\n Anyone with information is asked to call Detective E. Hardin with the Bakersfield Police Department at 661-326-3919.<\/p>\n A Similar Case Earlier This Year<\/p>\n This is not the only rock-through-glass vandalism report to hit the Truxtun Avenue corridor this year. Bakersfield police said that on April 23, a suspect allegedly threw a rock through a business’s front glass door in the 900 block of Truxtun Avenue at about 1:45 a.m. before running away from the area, according to BakersfieldNow<\/a>. That suspect was described as a man wearing a do-rag, gray sweater, navy blue shorts and white tennis shoes, a description that does not match the clothing reported in the law office case.<\/p>\n Detectives handling that earlier incident asked anyone with information to contact Detective J. Orozco at 661-326-3809 or the Bakersfield Police Department’s main line at 661-327-7111. It remains unclear whether the two cases are connected, and no evidence has linked the incidents beyond their shared location along Truxtun Avenue.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Bakersfield police are asking the public to help identify a man accused of hurling a rock through the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":514687,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[151,153,152],"class_list":["post-514686","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-bakersfield","tag-bakersfield","tag-bakersfield-headlines","tag-bakersfield-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/514686","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=514686"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/514686\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/514687"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=514686"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=514686"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=514686"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
