DeKalb County police say they are searching for two burglary suspects who were caught on camera breaking into a home.

The Eastwyck Circle home, off Candler Road, was broken into on Wednesday. The men are shown in video released by police climbing in a living room window.

They proceed upstairs. On the way, one is heard telling the other there’s a camera while covering his face with his shirt.

Police didn’t reveal if anything was stolen.

Anyone with information was asked to call 404-286-7990.
