Broward Sheriff’s Office deputies responded to a report of a suspicious male pulling car-door handles around 12:58 a.m. They found a suspect in a Volvo SUV, however, he drove off after bailing from the vehicle which turned out to be stolen from the same neighborhood. The suspect remains at large and the SUV was returned to its owner.
