A surveillance camera caught a man prowling about an Oxford home and allegedly taking a pillowcase and other items from a bedroom.

A Naples Lane homeowner observed an unknown man inside his Oxford home at approximately 2:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 8.
According to state police, he observed the man going upstairs toward the bedrooms via a surveillance camera. The suspect is described as a white man with dark hair, who was wearing a blue hoodie.
