Shirtless man breaks in, steals from 2 rooms

A shirtless man stole a laptop, an iPod and cash — all of which totaled more than $1,700 — Sunday morning from two rooms in East Shaw Hall, MSU police Sgt. Florene McGlothian-Taylor said.

The suspect entered two separate unlocked rooms between 5:50 and 6 a.m. as the occupants slept. He stole a Dell computer worth about $1,200 and a $20 bill from the first room, then took an Apple iPod Touch from a bag in the second room. A male student from the first room said he chased the suspect down the hallway, but eventually lost sight of him as he ran away, McGlothian-Taylor said.

The suspect is described as a white male, about 20 years old, with a fair complexion and medium build and wearing brown pajama pants.
