GULF SHORES, Ala.
On Monday, October 6, 2025, at approximately 7:32 AM, officers responded to a report of a suspicious vehicle in the 18000 block of Pine Acres Road.
Witnesses described a damaged truck with its driver’s side door ajar and a male subject fleeing the scene, attempting to enter another vehicle nearby.
Further investigation revealed the truck had been reported stolen from Robertsdale.
Officers quickly established a perimeter and deployed a K9 unit to assist in the search. As the investigation unfolded, several community members came forward with valuable information about the suspect and reported that their vehicles had also been broken into.
At 7:59 AM, the suspect was located on County Road 8 and taken into custody without incident. The individual, a 16-year-old male from Robertsdale, now faces multiple felony charges, including Possession of Stolen Property and Unlawful Breaking and Entering of a Motor Vehicle.
The teen also allegedly entered a vacant house. The car and stolen property from the reported car break-ins were recovered.
This remains an active investigation. Anyone with additional information is encouraged to contact the Gulf Shores Police Department at (251) 968-2851 or via email at gspdpio@gulfshoresal.gov.
