Police in San Francisco are asking the public for help in locating a suspect wanted in connection with a vehicle theft earlier this month.
On Jan. 5 at 1:45 a.m., the victim entered a gas station in the 1200 block of 19th Avenue. Police said the victim left his car unattended at the pumps with the key in the ignition and the engine running.
