Dunwoody police are looking for a man who allegedly broke into 20 self-storage units earlier this week.

The man was identified as 23-year-old Jahan McBride, police said in a post on social media. McBride and an unidentified man “forcefully entered” the storage facilities at Public Storage on Dunwoody Park South between 6:30 and 7:45 p.m. Tuesday, according to police. They stole “several items,” though police did not clarify what exactly was taken or how much it is worth.

They left the scene in a white Ford Fusion with a temporary license plate. Police did not say how they identified McBride as a possible suspect.

The units are private spaces people can rent out through the company to store their personal property.
