NORTH LAUDERDALE, FLA. (WSVN) - Detectives from the Broward Sheriff’s Office North Lauderdale District are seeking the public’s assistance in identifying and locating a man captured on surveillance video stealing a golf cart from a cemetery.
The incident occurred on Aug. 11 at Our Lady Queen of Heaven cemetery in North Lauderdale, located in the 1500 block of South State Road 7 in North Lauderdale.
