The Berkley Police Department is actively seeking the public's assistance in identifying two young suspects involved in an attempted breaking and entering incident at a local business. The crime occurred around 11:30 p.m. on Saturday, October 17, 2026, at the Vape Hut, a smoke shop located on Woodward Avenue near Princeton Road in Berkley, Michigan. According to police reports, surveillance footage captures one of the suspects attempting to smash the glass entrance door using a gallon-size paint can. The paint can reportedly burst during the attempt, potentially staining the suspect's clothing with brown paint. The first suspect is described as a male boy between the ages of 14 and 18. He was observed wearing a navy blue sweatshirt, dark pants featuring white writing or a logo on the left leg, and white shoes. The second suspect, who does not appear in the available surveillance video, is described as a male boy approximately 12 to 14 years old wearing all dark clothing. Although police responded to the scene, both individuals fled the area prior to the officers' arrival. Authorities have not yet identified the suspects by name. The investigating agency, the Berkley Police Department, is urging anyone with information regarding the identities of these individuals or their whereabouts to come forward. Residents with relevant information are asked to contact Berkley police detectives directly at 248-658-3390. The department has released surveillance footage to aid in the identification process. This case remains open as the suspects are currently at large.
