Beach police are searching for the suspects behind a string of car break-ins at a local concert venue.

On Thursday, August 23, 2012, there were several vehicle larcenies at the Farm Bureau Live Amphitheater located at 3550 Cellar Door Way.

Police say the victims were attending a concert and noticed their vehicles had been rummaged through when they returned.

There were approximately five victims who had parked in the same section in the parking lot, officials say. There was little or no damage to the vehicles that were locked. The items stolen included GPS units, and credit cards.

Investigators say the victims’ credit cards were being used at a WaWa store located on Northampton Boulevard. Officials have surveillance video of the suspects.
