A $900 guitar amplifier was stolen from Rochester First Assembly of God in June.

Oakland County Sheriff's deputies are hoping the public will be able to identify the man accused of taking a $900 Peavey guitar amplifier from last month, according to Oakland County Sheriff's Detective David Bach.

The suspect's image was captured on several of the church's surveillance cameras around 2:39 p.m. June 27 as he was entering the church and leaving with the amplifier in his hand.

Bach said he believes the suspect also had an accomplice, who was waiting to pick up the suspect and amplifier outside the church.
