Man seen lurking through Wynwood building arrested for burglary and theft – NBC 6 South Florida

Police have arrested a man who they say posed as a security guard and broke into several Miami apartments, stealing thousands of dollars worth of valuable items.

Abdul Woodside, 28, is facing a number of charges over a series of burglaries that allegedly took place last month.

According to multiple arrest reports, the suspect broke into unlocked homes – and when confronted, told victims he worked for security.

Police said that in one of the alleged burglaries, Woodside stole a $90,000 engagement ring, a Chanel handbag and a silver tennis chain worth $150,000.

The same suspect was also caught on surveillance video trying to open doors at a Wynwood residence.

At least two WYND 27 residents said the suspect also entered their homes as a security guard.

Woodside faces multiple counts of burglary and grand theft. He is currently in jail on bail.
