Lincoln Police are looking for a suspect in connection with a vape shop burglary around 4:30 Wednesday morning. Captain Todd Kocian says it happened at Generation V at 1501 North Cotner.

“Arriving officers found the front glass door shattered.  As officers were clearing the building, they discovered a glass case had been shattered and it appeared items were missing,” Kocian says.

Security video shows the suspect, wearing dark clothing, a mask and gloves, using a rock to break the door and gain entry.   Kocian says there was $2,000 damage to the business and about $1,000 in merchandise was taken.

The investigation is ongoing and anyone with information is encouraged to contact the Lincoln Police Department at 402-441-6000 or Crime Stoppers at 402-475-3600.
