DENVER (KDVR) — A Denver family is hoping to catch a thief caught on camera stealing their sprinkler system in broad daylight.
Earlier this month, DiMornai Baiyee-Cady was enjoying an afternoon with her newborn at her Park Hill home when she heard a noise coming outside of her window.

Her phone video captures a man in a hoodie and jersey, just inches away, yanking and fiddling with something right by the window. Another nearby surveillance camera catches the thief in the act, cutting and stealing her sprinkler system before running off in just over a minute.
Baiyee-Cady got a good shot of the man sprinting off to a not-so-discreet getaway van, spray-painted yellow and green.
“Just to see this person is just so bold. I’m just shocked at what people are capable of in broad daylight,” Baiyee-Cady said. “A few other people had also reported. I don’t know if it was a similar situation, but the same man was involved.”
Denver Police Department said detectives are working on suspect information. Anyone with information is asked to call Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at 720-913-7867.
