Las Vegas police need help identifying a man who burglarized a marijuana dispensary early Thursday in the southwest valley.

Officers were notifed about 3:40 a.m. of a burglary to a dispensary on the 9100 block of West Point Road, where they found a broken window.

Police say the burglar was a black man about 30 years old with a small mustache, wearing a long-sleeve dark shirt, dark pants, gray Converse shoes and a Washington Redskins hat.

The man took an undetermined amount of product and fled the area on a BMX-style bike, the Metropolitan Police Department said in a news release.

Anyone with information about the incident may contact Metro at 702-828-4809 or, to remain anonymous, Crime Stoppers at 702-385-5555.
