BOSTON (WHDH) - Boston police are asking for help identifying a thief who was caught on camera stealing packages Monday.

Police released surveillance images Wednesday of a man who they say stole a number of packages from an apartment building on Chandler Street.

They say he was able to gain access to the building by ringing several doorbells. He was seen leaving the area in a white sedan.

The suspect is described as a heavyset Black male in his late 40s or early 50s. He is said to be between 5 feet, 8 inches and 6 feet tall and weighing about 200 to 250 pounds.

He was last seen wearing a black knit cap, black leather jacket with white trim, black T-shirt with yellow and white lettering, and black pants. He has a trimmed gray goatee and wears eyeglasses.

Anyone with information is urged to call police at 617-343-5619.
