On Jan. 1 at 3:52 a.m. officers of the Delta Police Department responded to Comfort Inn located at 180 Gunnison River Drive on a report of a burglary. Investigation revealed an unknown male subject entered the business between 3 and 3:30 a.m. and removed an undisclosed amount of cash from the cash register.
The same male subject had entered the Bradley's Gas Station at 1st and Main at approximately 3 a.m. and allegedly taken a Lottery ticket.
The Delta Police Department is asking the public for their assistance in identifying the male subject allegedly involved in these crimes. The male is described as being in his late teens or early 20s, with a slim build, light complexion (possibly Hispanic), very short brown or dark hair, and dark eyes. The male subject was captured on video at both businesses and is seen wearing a blue zip front type jacket or heavy sweater about hip length, a darker blue, black or dark grey "hoody" type sweater underneath with loose fitting blue jeans and black or dark blue skater style sneakers with white laces (see photos).
