The Dalton Police Department is looking for information about a suspect who ripped off $120 from a clerk at the Quality Inn on College Drive.

Fasting-talking man

On Nov. 17, the black man pictured from a surveillance camera, approached the desk clerk at the hotel asking for change for the vending machine. The suspect gave the clerk a $20 bill. After getting his change, he began to ask for different denominations, keeping the clerk talking and not letting her put the money back in the drawer before he asked for a different denomination. Keeping the clerk confused, the suspect eventually worked his way up to a $100 bill in the drawer, and instead took a pair of $50.00 bills. The man left with $120.

The suspect is a black male, who appears to be in his 40’s or 50’s, wearing a black leather jacket. The image was captured by the hotel surveillance system.
