GREENBURGH, N.Y. — Greenburgh police are looking for a suspect who broke into a vehicle near Rumbrook Park on Oct. 12, and who might also be responsible for three vehicle break-ins in Yorktown.

The man told police someone had stolen his pants containing his wallet with his drivers license and credit card, according to police reports. The man said he saw a white BMW in the area while he was playing basketball, police said.
