Police are seeking the public's help in finding a suspect they say threw rocks at the windows of a home in Pennypack Park during an attempted burglary.

In surveillance video released by police Tuesday, an unknown male suspect can be seen approaching a home on the 8000 block of Lexington Ave. on Dec. 4 at 1:53 a.m.

Police say the residents, an elderly couple, said they woke up to find their screens were cut and two windows were broken.
