Victoria police say they are recommending 23 charges against a man who is the prime suspect in multiple break-ins and theft investigations.
Police say some of the first break-ins occurred on Feb. 8, when officers were called to a financial services business and a school for reports of break-ins.
Security footage from both locations showed a man carrying a backpack with several papers sticking out of it and wearing similar clothing, police say.
Several documents were stolen from the financial services business, and some electronic equipment was swiped from the school, according to VicPD.
Later in February, police say they were called to a tech company in the 500-block of Head Street on two separate occasions for reports of break-ins and thefts.
The first incident was reported on Feb. 17. Police arrived at the building and found no one inside, but staff were able to confirm a window had been opened and several unique pieces of technology were missing.
"Some of these items are proprietary to the company and are not available anywhere else," said VicPD in a release Monday.
