Police seek the help in identifying individuals connected to at least 17 early-morning burglaries across the Las Vegas Valley since Friday.

The person or persons involved break through the front glass doors of the businesses between the hours of 2:30 and 5:30 a.m., target cash drawers and safes, and get out of the business in a matter of minutes, according to a Metropolitan Police Department news release.

The people connected to these burglaries have been seen wearing black hoodie sweatshirts and blue jeans or black pants.

Three vehicles have been used: a gray, two-door sedan, a white Jeep Patriot and a black, four-door sedan.

Anyone with any information about the burglaries is urged to contact the Summerlin area command’s patrol investigative section at 702-828- 9455 or Crime Stoppers at 702-385-5555.
