Police investigating burglary at Gresham City Hall

Gresham Police are asking for help from the public identifying a person who burglarized Gresham City Hall over the weekend. Surveillance video captured the suspect breaking into several offices early Saturday morning, Sept. 6. The thief targeted primarily laptops, small electronics, and City-issued credit cards.

Most of the electronics were obsolete devices awaiting disposal. City staff had already removed the hard drives from several laptops at part of the disposal process, and the data on the remaining devices is encrypted. No critical City systems or data were accessed or affected.

The majority of the stolen property was recovered a few blocks from City Hall, apparently having been abandoned by the thief.

Anyone who recognizes the suspect is asked to call the GPD tip line at 503-618-2719 or toll-free at 1-888-989-3505.
