The on-duty BIS Officer received a text message from a BIS member reporting a suspicious vehicle and individual at the member's residence. The member advised that a home security camera had captured an image of a dark gray SUV, although the license plate was not visible.

The Officer responded immediately and arrived at the residence at 6:00 pm. A search of the street and surrounding area revealed no suspicious vehicles or individuals. The Officer conducted a complete exterior security check of the residence and found no signs of attempted forced entry, property damage, or disturbance. All doors and windows were secure and intact. The Officer cleared the call at 6:05 pm.

At approximately 7:42 pm, after returning home, the member reviewed additional security camera footage and forwarded three videos to BIS. The videos showed a possible White or Hispanic male in his 20s wearing blue shorts, a white or gray T-shirt, a black baseball cap, black sunglasses, and white athletic shoes. The male had shoulder-length dark brown or black hair.

The videos further showed the suspect arriving in a small silver SUV and pulling into the member's driveway. After exiting the vehicle, the male appeared to attempt to enter a garage access code, but no entry was gained. Before leaving, he was also observed taking photographs or video of the front entrance to the residence.

All information, video footage, and suspect descriptions were documented for future reference and shared with all BIS Officers and the Colorado Springs Police Department.
