Police are seeking assistance from the public in identifying three suspects involved in a series of vehicle break-ins at the Great Wolf Lodge in Manteca on Thanksgiving morning. According to the Manteca Police Department, 48 vehicles were broken into during the incident.
A community service officer with the department reviewed surveillance footage and determined that the suspects arrived at the scene in a stolen vehicle. The suspects parked this vehicle on a freeway off-ramp south of the lodge before entering the parking lot by slipping through a fence that separates the property from the Highway 120 bypass.
While the break-ins were taking place, a California Highway Patrol officer located and recovered the stolen vehicle. After discovering their car was missing, police said, “the trio fled westbound on foot into a nearby shopping center, where additional surveillance cameras recorded them without face coverings.”
The stolen vehicle had been reported missing from Roseville on November 20 and had traveled to San Francisco and other Bay Area locations before being found at the water park.
Authorities are asking anyone who can identify any of the three individuals to contact (209) 456-8101 and reference case number 25-05328. Investigators have stated that they are withholding further details as their investigation is ongoing.
